Lower motor neuron findings after upper motor neuron injury: Insights from postoperative supplementary motor area syndrome
Hypertonia and hypereflexia are classically described responses to upper motor neuron injury. However, acute hypotonia and areflexia with motor deficit are hallmark findings after many central nervous system insults such as acute stroke and spinal shock. Historic theories to explain these contradi...
