Abstract

The natural history of recovery after completed stroke, its speed, its duration, and its final extent are still not accurately known. Most authors have observed neurological improvement in the chronic postapoplectic state until the third or sixth month after stroke. If this improvement is caused by recovery of brain function, metabolism in a perifocal, still reversible altered brain area must be investigated by neurological and brain metabolism follow-up studies.
