Delayed CSF enhancement associated with Todd’s paresis

Delayed CSF enhancement associated with Todd’s paresis

We present a patient with Todd’s paresis who had undergone lung biopsy and who manifested increased signal intensity in the subarachnoid space of the right cerebral hemisphere on 10-h delayed enhanced fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images. We think that this was attributable to gadolinium leaka...

Zusammenfassung:We present a patient with Todd’s paresis who had undergone lung biopsy and who manifested increased signal intensity in the subarachnoid space of the right cerebral hemisphere on 10-h delayed enhanced fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images. We think that this was attributable to gadolinium leakage into the CSF due to increased leptomeningeal microvascular permeability in this patient with Todd’s paresis.
