Core Tip |
Multisystem smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is a disease caused by ACTA2 gene mutation. We report a case of MSMDS complicated with epilepsy. Since birth, the child developed several system dysfunctions, including dyspnea, congenital heart disease, and malnutrition. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance angiography showed cerebrovascular stiffness. It was accompanied by multiple abnormal signaling shadows around the bilateral ventricles, which may have been the focus of the seizures. Reviewing the literature and imaging reports, head MRI shows that abnormal signals and vascular malformations should be paid more attention to, which may lead to seizures in older patients. |
