title: Generalized chorea due to bilateral small, deep cerebral infarcts.
abstract: We present a case of generalized chorea, with complete recovery, due to MRI-documented bilateral lacunar infarcts of the caudate nucleus, putamen, and deep frontal white matter. MRI is probably more sensitive than CT in disclosing small deep cerebral infarcts.
