[Dide-Botcazo syndrome associated with Anton's syndrome after a cardioembolic infarction in the distribution of the bilateral posterior cerebral arteries].

Dide-Botcazo syndrome (Rev Neurol, 1902) is a unique neuropsychological syndrome, characterized by combinations of cortical blindness, amnesia, and topographical disorientation. We report 82-year-old right-handed man manifesting such syndrome associated with Anton's syndrome after a cardioembolic infarction in the distribution of the bilateral posterior cerebral arteries. The MRI study demonstrated recent extensive infarctions bilaterally in the occipital lobes and the medial temporal lobes, and thalamus.
