✦ Synopsis


thalamo-cortical loops have shown a similar neuropsychological profile. Verbal memory deficits have been found in both right hemi-Parkinson's disease patients (6) and in a patient with striatonigral degeneration affecting primarily the left putamen (13). Slowed word-list generation is also a recognized phenomenon in Parkinson's disease (14) and language deficits have been found in patients with infarcts primarily affecting the putamen (15). The putamen may thus be a critical structure for the production not only of motor-based programs such as writing, but also of cognitive functions such as word retrieval and verbal learning.

Lymphoma is an unusual cause of tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). Most fistulas develop after radiation therapy and are a rare occurrence in patients treated with chemotherapy alone. The presence of a TEF is usually indicative of active lymphoma. This report describes a tracheoesophageal fistula that
