Abstract

Forty-eight acute stroke patients with CT lesions were studied for horizontal gaze paresis (GP) and visual hemineglect (VN). In 24 GP-patients a clear relationship between stroke extent and GP was found, not revealing, however, specific neural substrates. Visual hemineglect in 12 cases was closely related with (right) inferior parietal lobe structures. Eye movements and VN are intertwined with separable underlying mechanisms.
