Delayed-onset parkinsonism is common after isolated striatal infarcts
This is the first study to systematically investigate delayed-onset parkinsonism in patients with isolated striatal infarcts, and our findings indicate that it may occur more frequently than previously recognized. These results challenge existing assumptions and highlight the potential value of repeated, targeted assessments in this population to improve detection and management of post-stroke parkinsonism.
