Portuguese term or phrase: Enfartes lacunares nucleo-capsulares bilaterais
I am editing a translation from Brazilian Portuguese into English.

The following phrase:

Enfartes lacunares nucleo-capsulares bilaterais e talamicos bilaterais.

has been translated as:

Lacunar infarcts in both thalamic capsulae.

It seems that something is missing, yet I cannot confirm "nucleo-capsular" as a real English term. All of the occurrences on the Internet are in translations from Italian or Portuguese, so it appears that it does not exist (or is not the correct term) in English. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I hope this will help.
