Material and method: We present our personal findings on 117 patients admitted in the Ist Neurological Clinic, laşi with hemorrhagic stroke of the thalamus.
Results: Transcortical aphasia for the left-sided strokes and anosognosia or hemi-neglect were among the most prominent clinical features, especially for large thalamic hemorrhage. Visual or tactile extinction, memory disturbances, agitation and hallucinosis were also exhibited in various proportions.
