Lateropulsion (pusher syndrome) is a trinity constituted by body tilt, pushing, and resistance. It is a way to adjust the body orientation in the roll plane to a wrong reference of verticality. Referring to straight above, lateropulsion might correspond to a form of spatial neglect (referring to straight ahead), which would advocate for 3D maps in the human brain involving the internal model of verticality.
