Fig. 3. MRI findings for case 3. / (A) Extensive areas of FLAIR T2-weighted signal hyperintensity in the subcortical white matter and overlying gray matter of the posterior, frontal, and occipital lobes. Parenchymal hemorrhage was seen in the high parietal region predominantly on the patients's left. (B-C) Follow-up MRI scan 1 month and 15 months following discharge showed progressive evolution and resolution of the T2 signal hyperintensities with residual encephalomalacia in the left parietal region. These findings were consistent with reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy complicated by hemorrhage; there was no evidence of infarction.
