摘要：
The brain of patients with adult type myotonic dystrophy was measured using MRT, and compared with age- and sex-matched controls, The width of the cerebrum, and the areas of the corpus callosum, pens and pituitary gland were significantly smaller in adult-type myotonic dystrophy than in the controls, The IQ of the patients with adult-type myotonic dystrophy was lower than that of controls, These results demonstrate a decreased volume of the brain and pituitary glands in myotonic dystrophy, These findings suggest a causal relationship for the mental retardation and endocrine dysfunction that may occur.
