We present a case of foot drop of central origin in a 45-year-old woman who was diagnosed a malignant brain tumor in the motor area. Extensive neurophysiological assessment with nerve conduction study and electromyography (EMG) was performed during the diagnostic process and showed abnormalities which challenged us towards a comprehensive clinical and neurophysiological evaluation.

Abstract
We present a case of foot drop of central origin in a 45-year-old woman who was diagnosed a malignant brain tumor in the motor area. Extensive neurophysiological assessment with nerve conduction study and electromyography (EMG) was performed during the diagnostic process and showed abnormalities which challenged us towards a comprehensive clinical and neurophysiological evaluation.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
