Updates to Article Attributes
Body
was changed:
Involvement of both middle cerebellar peduncles is uncommon, but has a relatively long list of differential diagnoses, including 1,2:
- neurodegenerative diseases
- metabolic diseasesÂ
- adrenoleukodystrophy
- Wilson disease
- alcoholic liver cirrhosis
hypoglycemichypoglycaemic coma- extrapontine myelinolysis
- neoplasms
- cerebrovascular disease
- AICA infarction
- hypertensive encephalopathy
- pontine infarct with Wallerian degeneration (involving bilateral middle cerebellar peduncles)
- inflammatory and demyelinating diseases
- Cyclosporin-A encephalopathy
