Heart-Shaped Bilateral Medullary Pyramidal Infarction as a Pathognomonic Finding of Anterior Spinal Artery Occlusion.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), pre-hospital markers of disease severity might be useful to potentially triage patients to undergo early interventions. OBJECTIVE:Here, we tested whether loss of consciousness (LOC) at the onset of ICH is associated with intraventricular hemorrhag...
