A Clinical Contribution to the Study of Post-Paralytic Chorea, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint): A Contribution to the Study of Localized Cerebral Lesions - Couverture souple
Synopsis
A detailed look at how localized brain lesions shape symptoms and disease progression. This edition presents case-by-case findings from early work on cerebral lesions and their clinical effects.
The text walks through patient histories, surgical findings, and post-mortem observations. It links specific brain regions to observed epileptic and motor symptoms, tracing how disease processes travel from the skull to the cortex and beyond. You’ll see how doctors in the period approached diagnosis, imaging limitations of the time, and the reasoning behind localization theories.
- Concrete case studies that tie physical brain changes to changes in movement, speech, and consciousness.
- Descriptions of how lesions alter nearby structures and disrupt neural pathways.
- Discussion of historical theories on brain localization and their clinical relevance.
- Illustrative details from post-mortem examinations and early neuropathology.
Ideal for readers of medical history, neurology, and anyone curious about how doctors connected brain anatomy to patient symptoms.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book expands on the research of Dr. Weir Mitchell (1870s) and Professor Charcot (1870s), whose work forms the cornerstone of the study of post-paralytic Chorea. The author builds on the acclaimed research of these neurological pioneers, providing a meticulously detailed examination of a group of symptoms known as post-paralytic Chorea, a phenomenon frequently accompanied by a sensory symptom - hemi -anaesthesia. The author presents two well-documented case studies that demonstrate a clear relationship between lesions on limited parts of the brain and the development of specific symptoms, also noting a rare correlation with paralysis of the third nerve on the right side accompanied by body palsy on the left, and, in a second case, hemiopia, which has previously been dismissed as non-existent by Prof. Charcot. The author argues that the precise location of the various lesions can be used to understand which symptoms will appear, which parts of the brain control the bodyâs functions, and how, as in the case of the third nerve palsy, seemingly unrelated symptoms can be correlated to a single lesion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780260208323_0
