Abstract

Bilateral thalamic infarction ( BTI ) can present as sleep‐like coma without focal neurological signs which can lead to delay in the diagnosis. Due to the diagnostic challenge, treatment is often delayed. The early use of DWI ‐ MRI in suspected cases can help in the early diagnosis and treatment.
