      Infarction in one cerebral hemisphere may cause contralateral hemiparesis or hemiplegia, or visual field defects. Infarction in the non-dominant hemisphere may cause visuo spatial problems such as constructional or dressing apraxia. If the parietal lobe is affected, there is a tendency for patients to ignore the contralateral side.

      A stroke is considered silent when there is evidence of cerebral infarction that is ≥ 3mm on brain imaging or autopsy without a clinical correlate. Similarly, patients may have evidence of hemosiderin indicating prior micro-hemorrhages or asymptomatic hemorrhages (example small cavernous malformations) without a clinical correlate.

Univariable analysis revealed age to be a significant predictor of decline in all seven domains, male sex in five domains and TCD HITS (p=0.009) with memory and recall (table 5 ...

      Neurologic symptoms have been reported in 26% to 45% of patients, with embolic cerebral infarct being the most frequently observed event [2]. Neurological symptoms attributable to cardiac myxoma can be categorized as acute or delayed. In the acute setting, cerebral infarctions due to tumour embolus are the most common complication.
