KEY FACTS

  • Terminology

    • Imaging

      • Top Differential Diagnoses

        • Pathology

          TERMINOLOGY

          • Abbreviations

            • Crossed cerebellar diaschisis (CCD)

          • Definitions

            • Diaschisis: Sudden loss of function in brain connected to (but at distance from) damaged area
            • CCD: Decreased blood flow/metabolism in cerebellar hemisphere contralateral to supratentorial infarct
              • Caused by interrupted afferent input through corticopontocerebellar tract (CPC)
            • CCD occurs in both acute & chronic phases
              • Acute CCD results from functional deafferentation
              • Subacute, chronic CCD reflects transneuronal degeneration
