We performed MR imaging deformation-based hippocampal shape analysis in a 28-year-old woman in whom status epilepticus developed after acute encephalitis. Hippocampal shape analysis revealed severe global bilateral hippocampal atrophy. Regional volume loss was most accentuated in the medial and lateral aspects of the hippocampal head; the loss was similar to shape changes in hippocampal sclerosis of chronic temporal lobe epilepsy. This deformation pattern may reflect a common pathologic process that causes hippocampal volume loss in both of these conditions.
我们对一名28岁女性进行了基于磁共振成像变形的海马体形状分析,该女性在急性脑炎后发生了癫痫持续状态。海马体形状分析显示双侧海马体严重整体萎缩。区域体积损失在海马头部的内侧和外侧最为明显;这种损失类似于慢性颞叶癫痫海马硬化的形状变化。这种变形模式可能反映了在这两种情况下导致海马体体积损失的共同病理过程。
