Lacunar Gait
From WikiLectures
Lacunar gait or old age walking is a type of walking that patients with lacunaris status have – hence the name lacunaris. Walking is about a wide base with small steps accompanied by basophobia.[1] The fear of falling can be alleviated by providing support (you only need to give a finger). In appearance, it resembles a frontal type of gait.
