We report a child affected by Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE), which was unsuspected clinically. MRI suggested the correct diagnosis and prompted appropriate thiamine replacement. WE is a difficult condition to recognise, especially in children, and MRI may be useful in the diagnosis of the disease.
我们报告了一名患有韦尼克脑病(WE)的儿童,该病例在临床上未被怀疑。磁共振成像(MRI)提示了正确的诊断并促使进行适当的硫胺素替代治疗。韦尼克脑病是一种难以识别的病症,尤其是在儿童中,而MRI可能有助于该疾病的诊断。
