GUARANTEED ACCURATE
ANSWERS
60 y/o right-handed M, getting lost, only writes on right half of paper.
Left-sided hemi-neglect. Where is the lesion? (8x) - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ RIGHT PARIETAL LOBE
66 y/o with HTN develops vertigo, diplopia, nausea, vomiting, hiccups,
L face numbness, nystagmus, hoarseness, ataxia of limbs, staggering
gait, and tendency to fall to the left. Dx? (8x) - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ LATERAL MEDULLARY STROKE
78 y/o pt had an ischemic stroke that left him with a residual mild
hemiplegia. Pt appeared to be unaware that there was a problem of
weakness on one side of this body. When asked to raise the weak arm,
the patient raised his normal arm. When the failure to raise the paralyzed
arm was pointed out to pt, he admitted that the arm was slightly weak.
He also neglects the side of the body when dressing and grooming. Pt
did not shave one side of his face, had difficulty putting a shirt on when
it was turned inside out. Area of brain likely affected by stroke? (4x) -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ RIGHT PARIETAL LOBE
26 y.o. w/HA and R-hand clumsiness for weeks. Exam shows difficulty
w/rapid alternating movements of hand, overt intention tremor on finger-
,to-nose, and mildly dysmetric finger tamping. CNS intact and no
papilledema. Where will damage show on MRI? (4x) - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ CEREBELLUM

months. Most likely a pathology in: (2x) - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔

Rapid onset of right facial weakness, left limb weakness, diplopia: (2x) -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ BRAIN STEM INFARCTION
MRI scan of head reveals an infarct in distribution of left anterior
cerebral artery. Pt most likely exhibits: (2x) - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ WEAKNESS OF CONTRALATERAL FOOT AND
LEG

tendency to gaze to right, and neglect left sided stimuli are deficits most
likely result of occlusion of: - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ RIGHT
MIDDLE CEREBRAL ARTERY
, 65 y/o w/ hx of HTN, Meniere's with sudden vertigo, N/V, worse with

ANSWERS✔✔ LEFT MEDIAL TEMPORAL STROKE
Visual disturbances associated with occlusion of the right posterior
cerebral artery? - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ LEFT HOMONYMOUS
HEMIANOPSIA
65 y/o w/ HTN collapsed. In ED is stuporous, R hemiparesis +
hemisensory deficit, eyes deviate to L. CT would show
intraparenchymal hemorrhage in: - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ LEFT
