The ivy sign refers to diffuse bilateral leptomeningeal enhancement on post- contrastT1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and increased signal intensity in bilateralsubarachnoid spaces and perivascular spaces on T2-weighted fluid attenuation inversionrecovery (FLAIR) MRI sequences in patients with moyamoya disease.

A newborn baby girl developed seizures right after birth. On the fourth day, the baby was examined using diffusion sequence magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diagnosed to have neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy. Laboratory findings confirmed the diagnosis. This is the first case of neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD) where diffusion MRI sequence helped in the diagnosis. We find association of NALD with seizures at birth is an extremely rare occurrence, and so far, only one case has been mentioned in the literature.

Abstract Hypertrophic olivary degeneration is a kind of trans-synaptic degeneration, caused by the interruption of dentato rubro olivary pathway. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been the best modality to show the signals of olivary nucleus hypertrophy. It appears on T2?weighted magnetic resonance imaging as hyper-intensities. Here we present a unique case of a 27-year-old male with traumatic brain injury causing multiple intracranial haemorrhages and functional impairment, which was revealed on computerised tomography. Tracheotomy and thoracic drainage were performed immediately. Anti-infection therapy, brain protection, and comprehensive arousal therapy were part of the intervention along with a comprehensive rehabilitation programme including occupational therapy, balance training, coordination, bed mobility training, and strengthening exercises. A holistic diagnostic approach can reduce the chances of misdiagnosing post-traumatic Hypertrophic Olivary Degeneration cases. Continuous...
