Wang GY, Teng F, Chen YH, Liu Y, Li Y, Cai L, Zhang X, Nie Z, Jin L.Korean Journal of Psychosomatic Medicine. Pathological laughing and crying: pathophysiology and treatment. To define exact mechanism and find effective treatment, further studies are needed. And we have considered mechanism of PLC associated with midbrain lesion, dysfunction of cortex-thalamus-hypothalamus-basal ganglia-mesencephalon and faciorespiratory nuclei pathways, cerebro-ponto-cerebellar pathways and damaged serotonergic neurotransmission can cause this based on recent neurobiology of emotion.
Treatment of traditional Korean Medicine could be effective for stoke rehabilitation including post-stroke PLC. After 6 weeks treatment, Pathological Laughter and Crying Scale (PLACS), Korean version of the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (K-SARA) are decreased and Korean version of Modified Barthel Index (K-MBI) is increased. She was treated by acupuncture, pulsed electromagnetic therapy (PEMT).
We recently experienced a 51-year-old woman who were diagnosed as PLC after midbrain infarction. Midbrain involvement causing PLC is extremely unusual and the exact mechanism by which this condition develops is poorly understood.
PLC is an uncommon symptom usually caused by cerebral lesions. Pathological laughing and crying (PLC) is a condition defined by relatively uncontrollable episodes of laughter, crying or both.
