Atypical Presentations of Foix-Chavany-Marie Syndrome (FCMS) in Stroke.

Foix-Chavany-Marie syndrome (FCMS) presents with anarthria and bilateral (B/L) central facio-linguo-velo-pharyngo-masticatory paralysis with "autonomic voluntary dissociation." The most common cause of FCMS is cerebrovascular disease, while rarer causes include central nervous system infection, developmental disorders, epilepsy, and neurodegenerative disorders. Even though this syndrome is also referred to as (B/L) anterior operculum syndrome, patients with lesion in sites other than (B/L) opercular regions also can develop the syndrome.
