Cranial magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities were observed in 8 children (5 boys, 3 girls; ages 4-14 years) with neurologic problems following infection by Borrelia burgdorferi, the etiologic agent of Lyme disease. Neurologic features included headache (6), behavioral changes (5), facial palsy (2), papilledema (2), papilledema with diplopia (1), disturbance of sleep pattern (2), and carpal tunnel syndrome (1). Two MRI studies demonstrated multiple focal areas of increased signal intensity in white matter on long TR (both proton-density and T2-weighted) images.
在8名感染了莱姆病的病原体——伯氏疏螺旋体后出现神经系统问题的儿童(5名男孩,3名女孩;年龄4 - 14岁)中观察到头颅磁共振成像异常。神经系统特征包括头痛(6例)、行为改变(5例)、面神经麻痹(2例)、视乳头水肿(2例)、伴有复视的视乳头水肿(1例)、睡眠模式紊乱(2例)和腕管综合征(1例)。两项磁共振成像研究显示,在长TR(质子密度加权和T2加权)图像上,白质中有多个信号强度增加的局灶性区域。
