Currently, transcranial stimulation for CVA treatment is based on the interhemispheric rivalry model. This model has proven to have many anomalies, necessitating a new paradigm. Spontaneous recovery from post-CVA hemiplegia has an ontogenetic pattern. We reanalyzed the 2008 longitudinal London study and found that cortical disinhibition is the mechanism for ontogenetic CVA recovery. We propose that transcranial stimulation with 10 Hz rTMS or anode electrical microstimulation can produce CVA recovery similar to spontaneous recovery. (Acta Med Colomb 2022; 47.
