Abstract
Reported is the change in cognitive function after neuronal cell transplantation as a treatment for basal ganglia stroke. Nine subjects (two controls, seven transplants), all over 2 years post stroke, completed a comprehensive neuropsychological test battery prior to and 6 months after treatment. Four transplanted subjects who had strokes in the nondominant hemisphere showed marked improvement on the Rey Complex Figure, a test of visuospatial/constructional ability and nonverbal memory.Entities:
