General paresis (parenchymatous neurosyphilis) is a rare disease, and in recent years the number of papers published on the magnetic resonance imaging findings has been limited. The findings are as follows: cerebral atrophy; mesiotemporal T2 hyperintensity; ventriculomegaly; pathological T2 hypointensity of the globus pallidus, putamen, the head of the caudate nucleus and thalamus. We present a new finding, diffuse cerebral white matter T2 hyperintensity, observed in a patient with general paresis with a 5-year history of progressive dementia.
麻痹性痴呆(实质性神经梅毒)是一种罕见疾病,近年来关于其磁共振成像表现的发表论文数量有限。其表现如下:脑萎缩;颞叶内侧T2高信号;脑室扩大;苍白球、壳核、尾状核头部和丘脑的病理性T2低信号。我们报告一项新发现,在一名有5年进行性痴呆病史的麻痹性痴呆患者中观察到弥漫性脑白质T2高信号。
