(G46.5*) Pure motor lacunar syndrome

Pure motor lacunar syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by a small stroke in the brain's deep white matter, resulting in damage to the small fibres that connect the brain's nerve cells. symptoms can include weakness or paralysis of the face, arm, or leg, as well as sensory loss, difficulty speaking, and difficulty walking.

Pure motor lacunar syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by small infarcts in the deep subcortical regions of the brain, such as the basal ganglia and thalamus. these infarcts disrupt the normal functioning of the basal ganglia and thalamus, leading to weakness in one part of the body, usually the leg or arm. other symptoms may include decreased coordination, difficulty walking, and tremor.
