A 10-year-old girl with acute-onset hemichorea had multiple areas of abnormal signal seen on magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, associated with middle and anterior cerebral artery vasculitis seen on cerebral angiography. Her serology and clinical course were supportive of the diagnosis of Sydenham's chorea. Other causes of cerebral vasculitis were excluded. Follow-up studies revealed resolution of changes seen on magnetic resonance imaging and partial resolution of angiographic abnormalities. This is the first report of abnormal cerebral angiography in Sydenham's chorea.
一名患有急性起病偏侧舞蹈症的10岁女孩，脑部磁共振成像显示多个异常信号区域，脑血管造影显示大脑中动脉和前动脉血管炎。她的血清学检查和临床病程支持Sydenham舞蹈病的诊断。排除了其他引起脑血管炎的原因。随访研究显示磁共振成像上所见的改变消失，血管造影异常部分缓解。这是关于Sydenham舞蹈病脑血管造影异常的首例报告。
