Abstract:
Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disease. Some patients with NIID occasionally present with acute symptoms. However, its mechanism remains unclear. We report a patient with NIID who presented with a stroke-like episode. Arterial spin labeling magnetic resonance imaging revealed hypoperfusion in the focal cerebral region at the onset while no apparent arterial occlusion was observed. The abnormal perfusion area was normalized 6 days after admission. Therefore, the perfusion abnormality was likely the main cause of acute neurologic deficits in NIID. NIID should be considered in the differential diagnosis of stroke mimics.
