Developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) are generally considered a benign and asymptomatic finding on CT and MR imaging. The authors report 2 cases of spontaneous thrombosis of the draining vein of a DVA depicted on CT and MR imaging. One patient presented with a nonhemorrhagic transient ischemia, which was successfully treated with anticoagulant therapy. The second patient presented with ischemia complicated by hemorrhagic conversion.

AbstractNonketotic hyperglycemic chorea-ballism (NKHCB), also known as diabetic striato-pathy (DS) by some, is a rare complication of diabetes mellitus and uncommon in children. We report a case of a 10 11/12-year-old boy of Asian descent with uncontrolled type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and multiple food allergies presenting with bilateral chorea-ballism. His brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed developmental venous anomaly in right parietal lobe and right cerebellum, no focal lesions or abnormal enhancements. Choreiform movements resolved with correction of hyperglycemia. Children and adolescents with a movement disorder should be evaluated for diabetes mellitus, especially with increasing prevalence and insidious nature of T2DM associated with obesity.
