title: Labio-glosso-pharyngo-laryngeal paralysis caused by two brain lesions: cortical and subcortical.
abstract: We report a case of labio-glosso-pharyngo-laryngeal paralysis with some peculiar features. CT and MRI yielded the diagnosis of acute pseudobulbar syndrome by demonstrating the existence of two lesions of the corticobulbar tract: one subcortical (recent) and the other opercular cortical (old) on the opposite side.
