Case Reports
Neuroanatomical Correlates of Motor Deficits in a Patient with Traumatic Brain Injury
Author(s): Natalisa Hvizdosova*
This case report examines the neuroanatomical correlates of motor deficits in
a patient who sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The patient presented
with hemiparesis and impaired coordination following a motor vehicle
accident. Neuroimaging studies, including computed tomography (CT) and
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), were performed to assess the extent
of structural brain damage and identify the underlying neural substrates
responsible for the motor deficits. The findings revealed lesions in the
corticospinal tract, primary motor cortex, and basal ganglia, highlighting the
importance of understanding the neuroanatomical basis of motor function
in patients with TBI. The case report emphasizes the significance of accurate
diagnosis and tailored rehabilitation strategies based on neuroanatomical
principles for optimal patient outcomes... Read More»
