Abstract

At age 3 1/2 years a child developed what appeared to be classic spasmus nutans. Thorough discussions as to the propriety of neuroimaging studies in such patients are presented. With this late age of onset, the presence of a compressive lesion was suspected and neuroimaging demonstrated a sellar-suprasellar mass lesion.

摘要

在3岁半时，一名儿童出现了看似典型的点头痉挛。文中对这类患者进行神经影像学检查的合理性进行了深入讨论。鉴于发病年龄较晚，怀疑存在压迫性病变，神经影像学检查显示鞍区-鞍上有占位性病变。
