A 60-year-old left-handed hypertensive woman without any history of neurologic events was admitted with acute onset of right-sided weakness. She was alert and oriented with fluent but dysarthric speech. She had no evidence of orofacial or limb apraxia. She had a central right-sided facial weakness and a right hemiparesis. There was no neglect or sensory loss.Keywords
