dc.description.abstractLateral medullary syndrome also referred to asWallenberg syndrome, posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) syndrome, orvertebral artery syndrome is a cluster of neurological symptoms and signs brought on by obstructions in the blood vessels supplying the medulla, which causes ischemia or infarction of the brainstem. The vertebral artery or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery are the arteries most frequently affected with lateral medullary syndrome. The most prevalent symptom istransient ischemic attack (TIA) with dizziness or vertigo andatherosclerosis in the posterior cerebral circulationbeingthe most common cause. Lateral Medullary Syndrome patients sufferfrom strokes or infarction and alsopresentwith vomiting,nausea, gait impairment, instability, hoarseness, and swallowing difficulties. Depending on the particular nuclei and fibersinvolved, different indications will appear. CT/MRI imaging is used to diagnose conditions. The majority of management is supportive, including risk factor reduction for additional ischemia events as well as speech and occupational therapy following an acute intervention. In this review article, we discuss the etiopathogenesis and factors leading to lateral medullary syndrome along with a comprehensive discussion on its clinical features, challenges in diagnosis, and treatment.en_US
