title: Paroxysmal rhinorrhea after medullary infarct.
abstract: Lateral medullary infarction, known as Wallenberg syndrome, can be accompanied by sympathetic dysfunction. We report a case of unilateral intermittent rhinorrhea that started after an ischemic stroke in the ipsilateral lateral medulla and cerebellum. Rhinorrhea might be mediated by dysfunction of the sympathetic autonomic system.
