Abstract
|
|
|
|
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder caused by the expansion of cytosine-thymine -guanine (CTG) repeats in the myotonic dystrophy protein kinase (DMPK) gene. Some literatures indicated that DM1 had incidental CNS lesions such as white matter lesions and diffuse gray matter atrophy. We report a patient with DM1 whose brain magnetic resonance image (MRI) showed multifocal hyperintense lesions and cystic lesion on both frontotemporoparietal lobes
