Spatial Neglect: A Review

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Spatial neglect is a specific syndrome in which there is unilateral brain injury, which is on one side of the brain and usually is related to stroke. Spatial neglect is most commonly in right hemisphere strokes, In the area that is around the middle cerebral artery and often can appear in as many as 80% of people in an acute stage. People with spatial neglect often are unable to see&nbsp; stimuli on the side opposite to the brain injury. Facial neglect can also occur due to parietal lesions as well as for parietal and temporal and frontal damage. It also can occur from subcortical stroke or white matter lesions.&nbsp;</span>

Abstract

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Spatial neglect is a specific syndrome in which there is unilateral brain injury, which is on one side of the brain and usually is related to stroke. Spatial neglect is most commonly in right hemisphere strokes, In the area that is around the middle cerebral artery and often can appear in as many as 80% of people in an acute stage. People with spatial neglect often are unable to see&nbsp; stimuli on the side opposite to the brain injury. Facial neglect can also occur due to parietal lesions as well as for parietal and temporal and frontal damage. It also can occur from subcortical stroke or white matter lesions.&nbsp;</span>
