Abstract:
Acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizure and late reduced diffusion (AESD) is a clinico-radiologic syndrome of acute encephalopathy characterized by biphasic seizure and altered consciousness in acute phase followed by restricted diffusion in bilateral cerebral parenchyma on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the subacute stage. Here, we present the MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) findings in a case of AESD presenting in 4-year child and diagnosed based on clinico-radiological correlation.
Insights
Acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizure and late reduced diffusion (AESD) is a rare syndrome. This case highlights key MRI and MRS findings in a child, aiding diagnosis.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Radiology
- Pediatric Neurology
Background:
- Acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizure and late reduced diffusion (AESD) is a clinico-radiologic syndrome.
- It presents with biphasic seizures and altered consciousness, followed by restricted diffusion on MRI.
Observation:
- This report details the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) findings.
- The case involves a 4-year-old child diagnosed with AESD.
Findings:
- The study presents specific MRI and MRS characteristics observed in the AESD case.
- Diagnosis was confirmed through clinico-radiological correlation.
Implications:
- Understanding these imaging findings is crucial for diagnosing AESD in children.
- This case contributes to the literature on AESD, aiding future diagnostic efforts.
