Abstract

The case is described of a 20-year-old man with adrenoleukodystrophy who showed right spastic hemiparesis and gait disturbance. Brain magnetic resonance imaging disclosed predominant involvement of the left corticospinal pathway. The clinical symptoms improved after bone marrow transplantation. Transcranial magnetic stimulation disclosed significant improvement in various parameters of central motor conduction.
