Follow-up MRI 3 weeks later demonstrated complete resolution. On direct questioning she revealed in recent months she had habitually eaten liquorice sweets each day; they were "on special offer" in her local shop. Liquorice contains a biologically active compound glycyrrhizic acid which inhibits 11...
Posterior reversibl ensefalopati sendromu(PRES): difüzyon ağırlıklı MRG bulguları One patient (patient 8) with high DWI signal intensity died before follow-up MR imaging could be performed. He died of aspiration pneumonia 2 weeks after the initial examination. Three patients had ...
Her consciousness disturbance improved in a few days, and follow-up MRI (T2WI) findings were markedly improved on the 20th hospital day (Fig. 4c). We diagnosed the patient as having PRES caused by chemotherapy containing S-1. Fig. 1 Abdominal CT at presentation at our hospital. a Abdominal...
Subsequent follow-up by Neurology with a repeat MRI head was normal. PRES is described as an abnormal neurological state combined with reversible MRI changes in the parieto-occipital regions of the brain, the pathophysiology of which is a form of vasogenic oedema seen in pregnancy as a variant...
Follow-up at 2 months after discharge showed her to be alert, with near-normal visual acuity (20/25) and intact color vision. She had residual right inferior quadrantanopia, apraxia, mild left hand weakness, and diffuse hyperreflexia. Head MRI showed evidence of encephalomalacia in the fronto...

Recovery of motor function at an early time point after surgery has been reported to be consistent for long-term follow-up.19 Moreover, by evaluating neurological recovery at an early time point after surgery, we can evaluate the effects of surgery for motor deficits, excluding the development ...
On follow-up her visual loss had recovered completely and she had regained full motor strength in all four extremities after 6weeks. Fresh MRI of the brain revealed complete resolution of lesions. Antihypertensive and antiepileptic medication was discontinued. She is independent in all her daily ...
Children with acute demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and an abnormal brain magnetic resonance image (MRI) were studied. Patients were assigned a final diagnosis after long-term follow-up. Comparisons were made between the MS and ADEM groups. Proposed definitions by the Pediatric ...
Although PRES is usually known to have a good prognosis, the mortality and morbidity rates may increase in the long-term follow-up as in our study. In this study, the etiology, the presence of status epilepticus, PICU history, atypical MRI lesions and increased inflammatory markers were found...
