Neurologic Spectrum of Chronic Liver Failure and Basal Ganglia T1 Hyperintensity on Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Probably Manganese Neurotoxicity

Article Abstract
Chronic liver failure may result in heterogeneous neurologic syndromes that cut across a variety of liver diseases. We selected cases on the basis of evidence of brain manganese accumulation, and this may be a crucial component of these syndromes. Further studies are necessary to explore this issue.
