Amaç & Hipotez:Neurofibromatosis type 1 is characterized on magnetic resonance imaging by optic nerve gliomas, parenchymal gliomas, and foci of prolonged T2 relaxation involving the brainstem, cerebellum, midbrain, internal capsule, and basal ganglia.
📊
Temel Bulgular & Veri:We report a child with neurofibromatosis type 1 in whom serial magnetic resonance imaging demonstrates spontaneous regression of basal ganglia lesions.
