Clinical manifestations of disease and lateral facial paralysis on the side to the level of sexual listened palsy and contralateral hemiplegia. Differential diagnosis (1) pontine infarct (pontile apoplexy) is the most commonly seen the basilar artery thrombosis formation of an acute onset, occurred after the age of 50 hypertensive patients or arteriosclerosis. Course with the early identification difficult pontine hemorrhage, brain CT diagnosis reliable. Pons performance for the former flake - density areas, border-less, no mass effect, the Central pool and the cerebellopontine angle morphologically normal pool; The latter performance for the uniform height of pontine lesions, occupying performance on the screen can be signs of mild hydrocephalus. (2) pontine tumors (tumor pontile) glioma styles, the condition is progressive increase, With the development of tumor suppression, there may be the cerebellar symptoms, advanced hydrocephalus obvious and performance of nausea, vomiting, and other symptoms of increased intracranial pressure. (3) Japanese Encephalitis (epidemic encephalitis B) for the sudden onset Hot, headache, vomiting, symptoms of meningeal irritation and serum complement test positive.
