In the present report, we discuss the case of a 66-year-old woman with isolated unilateral
hypoglossal paralysis due to cerebral infarction in the centrum semiovale. To date,
it has hardly been discussed where the corticolingual tract passes through in the
centrum semiovale. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed a small ischemic infarction
in the contralateral centrum semiovale. We could demonstrate a route of the corticolingual
tract.
