MR IMAGING IN IDIOPATHIC SUPERFICIAL SIDEROSIS OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS

Abstract

Neurovisualisation method of the bran investigation: magnetic resonance imaging using T2-gradient echo and susceptibility-weighted imaging, revealed characteristic hemosiderin deposition. This findings combined with clinical manifestation of progressive triade of symptoms: sensorineural hearing loss, cerebellar ataxia and pyramidal signs, led to diagnosis of idiopathic superficial hemosiderosis of central nervous system in patient with duration of disease more than 10 years.
