Wallerian degeneration of the corticospinal tracts [PDF]
A 35-year-old woman experienced acute onset of neck pain with dysarthria and left-sided weakness. Neurologic examination revealed a right-sided Horner’s syndrome, left facial palsy, and left hemiparesis. The diagnostic evaluation disclosed a spontaneous cervicocephalic dissection of the right internal carotid artery with infarction of the anterior ...

Virchow-Robin spaces : an anatomic variant or a pathologic sign? [PDF]
Virchow-Robin spaces surround blood vessels. Their walls are formed by prolongations of the pia mater and they have no communication with the subarachnoid space. VRS are often seen as well-delineated foci of cerebrospinal fluid signal on MR images.
