Effectiveness of rehabilitation for young patients with extensive right hemisphere cerebral infarction: A report of two cases

Abstract

Key Clinical MessageIn younger patients, including those with extensive infarction involving the anterior and middle cerebral artery regions of the right hemisphere, appropriate treatment for rare causes and goal‐oriented long‐term rehabilitation could improve severe hemiplegia and higher brain dysfunction, and allow for further education and employment.AbstractAlthough the number of young stroke patients is small, many have serious sequelae and rare causes. In addition to independence in activities of daily living, education and employment are desired. We present two cases of extensive infarction in the right cerebrum in patients who underwent rehabilitation with good outcomes.
