Stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy—also known as SMART syndrome—constitute
a rare condition typically characterized by headache, seizures, vision abnormalities,
hemiparesis, and aphasia. The condition usually resolves within a few days or weeks of onset
with no residual impairments. However, resolution in some cases extends over a period of
months rather than weeks and may be incomplete. The purpose of this case report is to provide
an in-depth description of the progression of changes in cognitive and language functioning
for a person exhibiting SMART syndrome characterized by slow recovery.
