Vignette A 54-year old woman with a history of alcoholism presented with stupor after 10 days of confusion followed by somnolence. Brain MRI disclosed callosal and widespread extracallosal white matter and cortical lesions (figure). After four weeks of treatment with thiamine and corticosteroids, a complete resolution of brain MRI lesions along with a good clinical recovery was observed.

Reversible widespread brain MRI lesions in Marchiafava-Bignami disease In Marchiafava-Bignami disease (MBD) , which is rare and frequently associated with alcoholism, brain MRI may show callosal, but also extracallosal white matter and cortical lesions. In alcoholic MBD patients with impared consciousness, rapid resolution of the widespread callosal, extracallosal and cortical MRI lesions is highly unusual. References 1.
