We present diffusion-weighted imaging findings of a case of rhombencephalitis due to Listeria monocytogenes. It is a rare, life-threatening disorder. The diagnosis is difficult by clinical findings only. In this report, we aim to draw attention to the role of conventional and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging findings. To our knowledge, this is the first case report in the literature with apparent diffusion coefficient values of diseased brain parenchyma.
我们展示了一例由单核细胞增生李斯特菌引起的菱形脑炎的扩散加权成像结果。这是一种罕见的、危及生命的疾病。仅通过临床表现很难做出诊断。在本报告中，我们旨在提请注意传统磁共振成像和扩散加权成像结果的作用。据我们所知，这是文献中首例报道患病脑实质表观扩散系数值的病例。
