Cerebral Involvement in Celiac Disease:A Serial MRI Study in a Patient with Brainstem & Cerebellar Symptoms Neurol 49:1447-1450, Ghezzi,A.,et al, 1997 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract A patient with celiac disease and relapsing-progressive symptoms suggesting brainstem cerebellar involvement underwent serial MRIs.The first examination revealed multiple enhancing and nonenhancing lesions. Thereafter,a large enhancing cerebellar lesion appeared,followed by severe cerebellar atrophy.The presence of structural neuronal damage was confirmed by proton MR spectroscopy and magnetization transfer imaging.MRI results and CSF finding suggested that neurologic complication were more likely due to an inflammatory process.
