Article Abstract
Superficial siderosis of the central nervous system results from hemosiderin deposition in the subpial layers of the brain and spinal cord. A clinical history of subarachnoid hemorrhage is often absent. Patients present with slowly progressive gait ataxia and sensorineural hearing impairment. This review discusses the role of multimodality imaging in evaluation of superficial siderosis and the therapeutic implications of identified associations.
