Clinical presentations of stroke: the classic and the less obvious.
While there are several types of stroke, the sudden or rapidly developing loss of one or more cerebral functions is the hallmark of the condition. Although classic manifestations include hemiparesis, hemianaesthesia, hemianopia, dysphasia, ataxia and cranial nerve palsies, several less typical stroke syndromes occur regularly.
