Computed Tomographic Reversal Sign in an Adult with Methanol Intoxication
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Analytical Medicine - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The computed tomographic (CT) reversal sign is associated with diffuse, anoxic/ ischemic cerebral injury, and is seen almost exclusively in children, and only one adult patient with meningitis exists in the literature with this sign. On the other hand, methyl alcohol intoxication is usually associated with bilateral putaminal necrosis, and no CT reversal sign has been observed before in this condition. This report presents an adult patient with methyl alcohol intoxication, and the CT reversal sign.
