Carotid Artery occlusion:
Typical symptoms are contralateral weakness or sensory disturbance, ipsilateral
blindness, and (if the dominant hemisphere is involved) dysphasia, aphasia or speech
apraxia.
Middle cerebral artery occlusion: paralysis or weakness of contralateral
face and arm (faciobracheal). Sensory loss of the contralateral face and arm.
Anterior cerebral artery occlusion: paralysis or weakness of the
contralateral foot and leg. Sensory loss at the contralateral foot and leg.
Lateral medullary syndrome
The most commonly affected artery is the Vertebral artery, followed by the Posterior inferior cerebral artery, superior middle and inferior medullary arteries.
