我们首次报告了一例临床轻度脑炎/脑病患者的单光子发射计算机断层扫描(SPECT)结果，该患者伴有与川崎病相关的可逆性脾损害(MERS)，显示双侧扣带回、丘脑、基底节、脑干和额叶皮质低灌流。提示MERS的发病机制为脑血管炎或脑血管脱水所致的脑低灌流。(C)2011年日本儿童神经病学学会。爱思唯尔出版，版权所有。
We report for the first time the single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) findings of a patient with clinically mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS) associated with Kawasaki disease, which showed hypoperfusion of the bilateral cingulate gyri, thalamus, basal ganglia, brainstem, and cortex of the frontal lobes. These findings indicate that the pathogenesis of MERS is based on cerebral hypoperfusion due to vasculitis or cerebrovascular dehydration. (C) 2011 The Japanese Society of Child Neurology.
