低血糖导致偏瘫的发展在1928年首次被描述。然而，其机制尚不清楚。我们报告一例58岁男性糖尿病患者，在严重的低血糖事件中发展为左偏瘫。结果磁共振弥散加权成像显示脑桥信号增强，提示患者偏瘫是急性脑损伤所致。结论急性脑损伤可能是神经功能缺损的原因之一。
Background The development of hemiplegia as a result of hypoglycaemia was first described in 1928. However, the mechanism remains unclear.Case report We report a case of a 58-year-old male with diabetes, who developed left hemiplegia during a severe hypoglycaemic event.Results Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging detected an increased signal intensity in the pons, indicating that the patient's hemiplegia resulted from acute brain injury.Conclusions This report provides evidence that acute brain injury may be a cause of the neurological deficit.
