摘要
Leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter (VWM) is a newly described entity with characteristic MRI features. We report the cranial MRI findings in three sisters with slowly progressive neurological deterioration. The MRI showed symmetrical diffuse abnormalities of cerebral white matter with hypointensity on FLAIR images. The diagnosis of leukoencephalopathy with VWM was made on the basis of genetic analysis.
