Abstract

Cerebroretinal microangiopathy with calcifications and cysts is a rare entity with progressive calcifications, enhancing subcortical cysts, and leukoencephalopathy. We present the oldest reported woman with this disorder, with 10 years of imaging documenting progression. This reveals (1) more profound white matter involvement than that previously reported and (2) growth and shrinkage of cysts over time, which may suggest a more complex pathogenesis than that previously theorized.

摘要

伴有钙化和囊肿的脑视网膜微血管病是一种罕见的疾病，具有进行性钙化、强化的皮质下囊肿和白质脑病。我们报告了患有这种疾病的年龄最大的女性病例，其10年的影像学检查记录了病情进展。这显示出（1）白质受累程度比先前报道的更严重，以及（2）囊肿随时间的增大和缩小，这可能提示其发病机制比先前理论推测的更为复杂。
