Cases


1. A 60 year person who was suffering from high blood pressure was admitted to the hospital with sudden onset of contra lateral hemiplegia and loss of speech. Based on your knowledge of anatomy answer the following questions:
  • Which part of the brain is probably involved here?
  • Describe  the sulci, gyri and functional areas of brain on the supero lateral surface of brain
  • Describe the blood supply of this surface(1+5+4=10)
