| Popis: |
A 37-year-old man was referred for a 1-year history of word naming difficulties and progressive executive dysfunction along with anxiety. Clinical examination showed generalized hyperreflexia and bilateral Babinski sign but was otherwise normal. His brain MRI (figure, A and B) showed extensive leukoencephalopathy with multiple small cysts within the white matter changes and no gadolinium enhancement. CT identified punctate calcifications with deep frontal and juxtacortical distribution (figure, C and D). His mother died at 63 years after a 10-year history of progressive cognitive impairment of frontal type, walking difficulties, and urinary incontinence. Her brain imaging was strikingly similar to her son's (figure, E–H). |
