The role of clinical evaluation in the diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke remains unclear in current guidelines. The manifestations of stroke are diverse, so that the approach to evaluation and treatment are not the same for each patient. In this article, we review the role of neurological examination in diagnosis and treatment of acute stroke.

Stroke This occurs when interruption of blood supply from the posterior cerebral artery to the visual cortex is prolonged. The only finding on examination is a homonymous visual field defect that stops abruptly at the vertical meridian. Occipital lobe stroke is usually due to thrombotic occlusion of the vertebrobasilar system, embolus, or dissection. Lobar hemorrhage, tumor, abscess, and arteriovenous malformation are other common causes of hemianopic cortical visual loss. Factitious (Functional, Nonorganic) Visual Loss This is claimed by hysterics or malingerers.
