[sneddon syndrome]

The authors report the neuropathologic findings in a case of Sneddon 's syndrome . There were multiple small , predominantly cortical , infarcts , with focal hyperplasia and fibrotic occlusion of arterial vessels in the superficial white matter , cortex , and leptomeninges . A very occasional arterial thrombus was seen . These findings suggest that Sneddon 's syndrome is caused by a noninflammatory arteriopathy affecting superficial cerebral vessels .
