Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a rare, slowly progressive, fatal, inflammatory and neurodegenerative disease that is seen mostly in children and young adolescents, and primarily affects the parieto-occipital lobes. The corpus callosum, cerebellum and basal ganglia are less frequently involved. MR spectroscopy (MRS) may illustrate the pathophysiological features of SSPE. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second report of MRS findings of corpus callosum involvement in a stage 3 SSPE case.
亚急性硬化性全脑炎(SSPE)是一种罕见的、缓慢进展的、致命的炎症性神经退行性疾病,多见于儿童和青少年,主要累及顶枕叶。胼胝体、小脑和基底神经节较少受累。磁共振波谱(MRS)可显示SSPE的病理生理特征。据我们所知,这是关于胼胝体受累的3期SSPE病例MRS表现的第二篇报道。
