Sensory disturbance around the corner of the mouth, in the palm of the hand and in the foot on the same side (cheiro-oral-pedal syndrome) has been reported only in 2 patients with brainstem lesion. We report 2 cases of cheiro-oral-pedal syndrome; the causative lesion was revealed by magnetic resonance imaging to be in the ventral postero-lateral and ventral posteromedial nuclei of the thalamus.
