The case reported in this issue of symmetrical brain stem damage associated with exposure to methylbromide has affinities with a number of analogous syndromes associated with tissue energy deprivation. Attention is drawn to topographical and metabolic similarities and differences in these conditions, and suggestions are made for possible ways of mitigating the damage in future cases that may also be of value in Wernicke and Leigh's diseases.
本期报道的这例与接触甲基溴有关的对称性脑干损伤病例，与一些因组织能量缺乏而导致的类似综合征有相似之处。本文着重探讨了这些病症在病变部位及代谢方面的异同，并针对未来可能出现的病例提出了减轻损伤的可行方法，这些方法对韦尼克病和 Leigh 病或许也具有参考价值。
