Wallenberg's syndrome is a neurological condition caused by a stroke in the vertebral or posterior inferior cerebellar artery of the brain stem. Wallenberg's syndrome is also called Lateral Medullary Syndrome. In this case report, we are going to describe the clinical menifestation and progress of one case of Wallenberg's syndrome and review previously published case reports about it and compare them to our case. In conclusion, significant improvements were observed in some symptoms but there were some symptoms not improved such as paresthesia. So further researches are needed for more effective treatment.
