The case of a 37-year-old woman with facial myokymia is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electromyography (EMG) and brain-stem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) supported the clinical diagnosis of suspected multiple sclerosis (MS). MRI showed a single area of abnormal signal in the pontine region. The authors discuss the possible relationship between the brain-stem lesion and the electrophysiological abnormalities demonstrated by BAEPs and the EMG of facial muscles.
报告了一例37岁面部肌束震颤女性患者的病例。磁共振成像(MRI)、肌电图(EMG)和脑干听觉诱发电位(BAEP)支持疑似多发性硬化症(MS)的临床诊断。MRI显示脑桥区域有一个异常信号区。作者讨论了脑干病变与BAEP和面部肌肉EMG显示的电生理异常之间的可能关系。
