ABSTRACT
Improvement of a patient's essential tremor (ET) after a stroke has rarely been reported. In such patients, cerebral imaging could help to identify structures involved in the maintenance of ET and improves the knowledge of its physiopathology. This article reports the disappearance of ET, after a stroke in 4 patients and reviews similar previously published cases. These cases suggest that the interruption of cerebellar loops during a stroke could be responsible for the disappearance of ET.
