Superficial hemosiderosis of the central nervous system. A case report.
A case of idiopathic superficial hemosiderosis (SH) of the central nervous system and a review of the literature are presented. The patient suffered from progressive cerebellar ataxia, hearing loss, anosmia, spastic paraparesis, but no mental deterioration. The diagnosis was made with brain and spinal MRI, that showed in T2 weighted images superficial hypointensity of spinal cord, medulla oblungata, pons, mesencephalon, cerebellum and cerebral hemispheres, images that are considered pathognomonic of SH. Repeated spinal fluid examinations were negative, suggesting that evidence of overt subarachnoidal bleeding is not essential in the diagnosis. In patients with SH of unknown etiology no valid therapy is yet available.
