Özet
Amaç: Dizartri, konuşmanın başlatılması, kontrolü ve artikülasyonu sağlayan yapıların
eşgüdümünde bozukluklarla karakterize bir konuşma bozukluğudur. Anatomik özgüllüğü,
eşlik eden klinik bulguların özellikleri ve prognozu hakkında pek az bilgi mevcuttur. Biz
lezyon lokalizasyonu ve prognoz arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmayı amaçladık.
Yöntem: BT ve/ve ya MR ile gösterilen tek bir infarkta bağlı olarak aniden gelişen dizartrisi
olan hastalar çalışmaya katıldı. Artikülasyon akut dönemde, birinci ve üçüncü ayda
değerlendirildi ve derecelendirildi.
Sonuç: Ardışık 55 hasta değerlendirildi. Lezyonların çoğu korona radyatada olup pontin
lezyonlar ikinci sıklıktaydı. Hem birinci hem de üçüncü ay muayenelerinde spontan düzelme
çok belirgindi. Sağda korona radyata ve infratentorieyel lezyonların daha iyi prognozlu
olduğu izlenimi edinildi.
Yorum: Farklı lokalizasyonlarda lezyonu olan daha çok hastanın katıldığı ve fonksiyonel
görüntüleme yöntemlerinin kullanıldığı çalışmalar dizartri prognozu ve lezyon lokalizasyonu
ile ilişkisi konusunda yararlı bilgiler sağlayabilir.
