The purpose of this paper is to elucidate several diseases that manifest as BTH or MRI, based on a retrospective review of cranial MRI of 65 cases seen in our institution between October 2007 and September 2010. We both found BTH in different clinical scenarios that included infective diseases (herpes simplex virus, congenital cytomegalovirus infection), epileptic syndrome (mesial temporal sclerosis), neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimers disease, frontotemporal dementia , Type 1 myotonic dystrophy), neoplastic conditions (gliomatosis cerebri), metabolic disorders (mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes, Wilsons disease, hyperammonemia), dysmyelinating disease (megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy) and paraneoplastic (limbic encephalitis) disorders. |
