ABSTRACT
We report a 72-year-old man suffering from recurrent attacks of transient drowsy mentality during meal or on orthostatic body position. Markedly disturbed collateral blood flow to right hemisphere was observed on conventional cerebral angiography. Acute and old ischemic lesions in the right internal borderzone area were also noticed on magnetic resonance image. Postprandial and orthostatic hypotension in the present case could be the cause of the recurrent neurological deficit developed in the primarily disturbed collaterals in the right middle cerebral territory.
