Abstract
Four of 688 consecutive patients with right hemisphere ischemic stroke show ed acute associated exploratory-motor and perceptual-sensory neglect withou t hemiparesis (AMSNWH). All cases had anterior cortical and posterior corti cal infarctions in which motor strip and corticospinal pathways were spared . Acute AMSNWH is highly suggestive of embolic infarction in the anterior a nd posterior pial artery territories.
