Laminar cortical necrosis in mitochondrial disorders

Kopfschmerz bei Gefäßstörungen

We reported an autopsy case of thrombotic occlusion of the superior cerebral vein with hemorrhagic laminar necrosis of the right parietal cortex. A 68-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of a severe headache and left hemiplegia of acute onset. There was a past history of hypertension, fever of unknown origin, leukocytopenia and nasal dermatitis. Magnetic resonance images (MRI) disclosed thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus and of the right parietal cortical vein as well as right parieto-occipital cerebral infarction. Although she improved with mild sequelae, the subsequent MRI showed a recurrent thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus. Ten months after the onset she died suddenly, presumably due to acute myocardial infarction. Pathologically, thrombotic occlusion of the right parietal cortical vein, recurrent thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus and old hemorrhagic cortical laminar necrosis of the right parietal region were revealed. Moreover, intracranial arteritis and phlebitis were observed, as well as arteriolitis in the peripheral nerves. In our case, MRI was useful for the diagnosis and following the course of cerebral venous thrombosis. Cerebral noninfective vasculitis may well have caused the venous thrombosis.
