Polyneuropathy with osteosclerotic myeloma--POEMS syndrome. A case report.

abstract：:Stroke patients with "pusher syndrome" show severe misperception of their own upright body orientation although visual-vestibular processing is almost intact. This dissociation argues for a second graviceptive system in humans for the perception of body orientation. Recent studies revealed that the posterior thalamus ...
