The 'hot cross' bun (HCB) sign refers to pontine cruciform hyperintensity on T2 weighted magnetic resonance image (MRI) which is frequently seen in multiple system atrophy and spinocerebellar ataxia types 2 and 3. We describe a 3 years old boy of encephalitis and his MRI image showed HCB sign in the pontine. After immunosuppressive treatment and followed up 14 months, he got a good outcome and the HCB sign narrowed nearly disappeared.
“热十字”面包征(HCB征)是指在T2加权磁共振成像(MRI)上脑桥出现的十字形高信号,常见于多系统萎缩以及2型和3型脊髓小脑共济失调。我们报告了一名3岁患脑炎男孩,其MRI图像显示脑桥有HCB征。经过免疫抑制治疗并随访14个月后,他恢复良好,HCB征变窄几乎消失。
