A patient with cerebral dysrhythmia and fever of unexplained origin for 2 years is described. She had elevated and nonsuppressible levels of urinary 17-hydroxycorticosteroids but no clinical features of hypercortisolism. Treatment with valproate sodium corrected all the abnormalities. It is postulated that cerebral dysrhythmia can affect the hypothalamic mechanisms of body temperature and regulation of adrenocorticotropic hormone levels.
本文描述了一名患有大脑节律异常和不明原因发热2年的患者。她的尿17-羟皮质类固醇水平升高且不可抑制,但没有库欣综合征的临床特征。丙戊酸钠治疗纠正了所有异常情况。据推测,大脑节律异常可能影响体温的下丘脑机制以及促肾上腺皮质激素水平的调节。
