Pancerebellar syndrome in heat stroke: clinical course and CT scan findings.

B A Yaqub, A K Daif, C P Panayiotopoulos.   

Abstract

We present the clinical course and computerized tomography (CT) findings in a case of pancerebellar syndrome due to heat stroke at the Mekkah Pilgrimage. CT scan was initially normal, but five months later, a considerable generalized cerebellar atrophy was seen despite remarkable clinical improvement.
