A 40-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with disturbance of consciousness and seizure. We diagnosed encephalopathy associated with autoimmune thyroid disease (EAATD). Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery and diffusion-weighted MRI demonstrated hyperintense lesions in the left occipitotemporal lobe on admission, but these findings disappeared on day 11 without neurological deficits, comp...

Although the combination of MR imaging findings and clinical evidence of hypertension may suggest the diagnosis of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), MR imaging findings with only involvement of the medulla oblongata pose a diagnostic dilemma. In the cases presented here, we demonstrated MR imaging findings of a presumed brain stem (medulla oblongata) variant of PRES and empha...

Article history: Received 25 July 2016 Accepted 25 July 2016 Available online 27 July 2016 small amounts ofM and L protein asminor components of S-HBsAg particles. It has superior immunogenicity (Shouval et al., 2015), but it remains open whether this is due to the preS components or to better immunogenicity of the S part. Isolated preS antigen without HBsAg had generated neutralizing antibodie...

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a recently described condition, wherein there is vasogenic oedema, seen on neuroimaging, predominantly over the parieto occipital regions of the cerebrum. Though, as the name implies, the condition is reversible, there may be fatalities and neurological sequelae. We are reporting a 9-year-old female child in whom the typical clinical and ne...

We report a case of a young woman, with a history of a miscarriage and a molar pregnancy, who developed headache and status epilepticus in postpartum day three. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) and cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis (CVST) can present with identical clinical picture; however, the imaging findings can help the clinician to make the correct diagnosis and init...

A 39-year-old man presented with progressive headache, nauseas, blurriness and cortical blindness. Blood pressure: 230x140 mmHg. Glasgow score: 15. Fundoscopy revealed hypertensive retinopathy and papille de ma. Neurological examination was normal. Brain ma gnetic resonance imaging revealed area of swelling and high signal on FLAIR-weighted images on the brainstem and cerebral white-matter abno...

Polycomb-mediated chromatin repression modulates gene expression during development in metazoans. Binding of multiple sequence-specific factors at discrete Polycomb response elements (PREs) is thought to recruit repressive complexes that spread across an extended chromatin domain. To dissect the structure of PREs, we applied high-resolution mapping of nonhistone chromatin proteins in native chr...

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a clinical and radiological in which patients present with an acute presentation of seizures, headache, altered mental status, cortical blindness, classic posterior cerebral edema on imagery. Patients HIV are at risk for the development this syndrome, but it rarely reported. We report case woman HIV-positive who was diagnosed PRES.

Encephalopathy is an uncommon complication of childhood influenza infection, typically recognized during influenza epidemics. Imaging hallmarks include characteristic thalamic lesions, thalamic necrosis and hemispheric edema. We describe a child with acute influenza A associated necrotizing encephalopathy with MR angiographic evidence of significant cerebral vasculopathy and a hemispheric edema...

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is one of the major causes of neurologic impairment commonly presenting with seizures or headaches, mental alterations or visual disturbances usually associated with hypertension in those children. It is known to be a potentially reversible entity with typical neurologic findings corresponding MRI abnormalities including hyperintense lesions w...
