Resumen

Activación bilateral de la corteza motora después de un ictus capsular: un caso clínico. Uno de los signos comúnmente observados tras un infarto capsular es la presencia de movimientos asociados anormales. Varios estudios han puesto en relación estos movimientos asociados con una activación anómala bilateral de la corteza motora. Este patrón de activación ha sido detectado mediante potenciales motores en varias patologías. Nuestros resultados muestran alteraciones de diversos componentes (NS y MP) por lo que entendemos que esta técnica puede ser de utilidad para clarificar los mecanismos de reorganización funcional tras un infarto capsular.
