Reversible MR findings of hemolytic uremic syndrome with mild encephalopathy
1Department of Traumatology and Critical Care Medicine, Osaka University Medical School, Suita City, Japan.
We report the reversible MR findings in a 7-year-old girl with hemolytic uremic syndrome and mild encephalopathy. The splenium of the corpus callosum showed isointense to low signal intensity on T1-weighted images and high signal intensity on T2-weighted images, representing local edema. These findings returned to near normal on MR images obtained 1 week later. The patient recovered without CNS impairment.
