A 19-year-old child became disoriented and ataxic 6 days after a diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT) booster injection. Computerized tomographic scan revealed a hyperdense mesencephalic-pontine mass, and angiography demonstrated an avascular mass. Pontine biopsy revealed no abnormality. Her clinical course fluctuated until her death 15 months later. At autopsy, an angiographically cryptic arteriovenous malformation (AVM) was present in the mesencephalon and pons. Vascular malformations of the brain stem producing prolonged clinical courses, are reviewed.
一名19岁儿童在白喉-百日咳-破伤风（DPT）加强免疫注射6天后出现定向障碍和共济失调。计算机断层扫描显示中脑桥脑高密度肿块，血管造影显示无血管肿块。脑桥活检未发现异常。她的临床病程波动，直至15个月后死亡。尸检发现中脑和脑桥存在血管造影隐匿性动静脉畸形（AVM）。本文对导致临床病程延长的脑干血管畸形进行了综述。
