Central @entity9 (CNP) after @entity64 has not been studied in sufficient detail and published studies have only included @entity1 with cerebral artery infarct or @entity548 . This study evaluates the prevalence and factors associated with CNP after @entity50 ( @entity19312 ). This observational study included all @entity1 admitted to our @entity64 unit for @entity19312 between January 2002 and December 2007. Clinical data for each @entity1 were collected prospectively and were combined with retrospective review of neuroradiological imaging. @entity19312 @entity1 were systematically examined at the outpatient clinic at 6 months, 12 months, and annually thereafter, and information on long-term functional outcome, including the presence of CNP, were obtained by open-ended questions. A standardized CNP assessment was performed during the last outpatient visit and was based on the @entity1 's interview and clinical examination. @entity158 characteristics were assessed by the DN4-questionnaire. CNP was considered when the @entity1 met the following criteria: painful area within the area of sensory abnormalities and follow-up MRI showing brain parenchymal lesion. Among the 43 @entity1 admitted for @entity19312 , seven (16%) developed CNP during the first year of follow-up. Standardized CNP assessment was performed 24.9    11.6 months after @entity19312 : eight @entity1 (19%) suffered from CNP. @entity51 (87 vs. 17%, p < 0.001), @entity51 (62 vs. 20%, p = 0.03), @entity385 (75 vs. 23%, p = 0.009), right-sided lesion on initial MRI (62 vs. 17%, p = 0.017), thalamic (37 vs. 0%, p = 0.005) and basal ganglia involvement (25 vs. 0%, p = 0.03) and vein of @entity432 (25 vs. 0%) were significantly associated with CNP. Despite several methodological limitations, CNP after @entity19312 seems to be frequent, accounting for one-fifth of all cases of @entity19312 . Some clinical and radiological factors might contribute to the development of CNP.
