Abstract

|
In myotonic dystrophy(MD), a characteristic myopathy is accompanied by abnormalities of other systems, including the brain. The pathogenesis of MD has not been clearly explained. Sometimes white matter lesion was noted on brain MRI, but its causative roles and association with intellectual impairment in MD was not clea yet. We report a case of myotonic dystrophy with intellectual impairment and temporal white matter lesions.
