Core Tip |
Central pontine myelinolysis (CPM) usually occurred in the rapid correction of serum osmolality. We describe a 49-year-old man with type 2 diabetes who developed CPM without a history of hyponatremia or other common causes. Novelty, lesions in his brainstem showed atypical glioma-like inhomogeneous signal intensity on contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. He recovered generally after the therapy of methylprednisolone pulse in the acute phase and dose tapering subsequently. Our patient revealed an unusual cause and imaging presentation of CPM, implying the benefits corticosteroid therapy to outcomes. Thus, further guiding the therapeutic decision for clinicians. |
