Central tegmental tract involvement in an infant with 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthetase deficiency.

J Takanashi1, M Kanazawa, Y Kohno.   

Abstract

We report the case of an asymptomatic 2-month-old infant with 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthetase deficiency detected through a neonatal phenylketonuria screening program. MR imaging revealed symmetrical lesions in the central tegmental tract with reduced diffusion, which resolved after treatment. A possible explanation for these lesions is intramyelinic edema resulting from brain insults in utero.
