Abstract:
:Thalamic hand is one of the clinical expressions of the painful thalamic syndrome. This paper relates on a case of a patient with a syndrome of central post-stroke and supra-thalamic pain who also presents a thalamic hand. The authors emphasize the notion that in the syndrome of central post-stroke pain a direct or indirect (infra or supra)-thalamic lesion seems to be an essential element for the genesis of central pain.
