The infarction of anterior choroidal artery is less common stroke. There was a greath eterogeneity in clinical presentation. There is controversy in the clinical and etiological presentation of the infarction of anterior choroidal artery. The most common symptoms are : hemiparesis, hemihipoestesia, and the prevalent etiology is the atheromatosis of large arteries. To describe clinical, etiopathogenical and terapeuty characteristics of patients with infaction of this vascular territory.
