1.  Acute onset quadriparesis with urinary incontinence


2.  Previous episode of transient right hemiparesis
3.  Decreased bilateral carotid pulsations
4.  Bilateral frontal lobe signs
5.  Left parietal cortical impairement
(astereognosis, agraphia)
6.  Right UMN VII
7.  Bilateral pyramidal weakness
8.  Bilateral babinski response
