'Hot-cross bun sign' of multiple system atrophy.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether proton density-weighted imaging can detect the "hot cross bun" sign in the pons in multiple system atrophy with predominant cerebellar ataxia significantly better than T2-weighted imaging at 3T. METHODS Sixteen consecutive patients with multiple system atrophy with predominant cerebellar ataxia according to the Consensus Criteria were reviewed. Axial unenhance...
متن کاملMultiple system atrophy.
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is an adult-onset sporadic progressive neurodegenerative disorder of unknown etiology. It is clinically characterized by the variable combination of autonomic failure, parkinsonism, cerebellar ataxia, and pyramidal signs. The present review summarizes up-to-date knowledge on the clinical diagnosis and molecular pathology of MSA. We also review the role of additiona...
متن کاملMultiple system atrophy.
Multiple system atrophy is a neurological disorder that has gone unrecognized for too long due to its involvement across multiple regions of the central nervous system. This disorder is finally being unveiled through increased reporting in the scientific literature. Further research will enhance our understanding of this disease and lead to more effective treatment regimens as well as an improv...
متن کاملDystonia in multiple system atrophy.
OBJECTIVE To delineate the frequency and nature of dystonia in multiple system atrophy (MSA). METHODS A cohort of 24 patients with clinically probable MSA over the past 10 years were prospectively followed up. Motor features were either dominated by parkinsonism (MSA-P subtype, n=18) or cerebellar ataxia (MSA-C, n=6). Classification of dystonic features and their changes with time was based o...
متن کاملMultiple system atrophy.
Although the precise definition of multiple system atrophy has been difficult, a recent consensus in diagnostic criteria for multiple system atrophy has been achieved. This should lead to progress in defining the underlying pathophysiology of the neuroendocrine, autonomic and motor deficits characteristic of multiple system atrophy. Hopefully, these developments will lead to effective treatment.
