Enhancing cranial nerves and cauda equina: an emerging magnetic resonance imaging pattern in metachromatic leukodystrophy and krabbe disease.
[krabbe disease]
We
report
on
three
cases
of
infantile
Krabbe
disease
and
one
case
of
infantile
metachromatic
leukodystrophy
showing
magnetic
resonance
(
MR
)
imaging
findings
of
diffuse
and
coexistent
cranial
nerve
and
cauda
equina
nerve
roots
enhancement
.
Such
findings
may
be
simultaneous
,
or
even
precede
,
typical
white
matter
abnormalities
and
,
in
the
appropriate
clinical
context
,
may
facilitate
an
earlier
diagnosis
.
There
is
a
rational
for
the
use
of
contrast
agents
and
craniospinal
MR
imaging
during
the
first
imaging
of
children
with
a
history
of
psychomotor
regression
and
clinical
evidence
of
peripheral
nerve
involvement
to
exclude
differential
diagnoses
.
