Figures

Figure 1.
Figure 1. (A) A CT of the head without contrast demonstrated an area of hyperdensity involving the right head of caudate, putamen, and globus pallidus, and to a lesser extent, the left putamen, with no surrounding edema. (B) Partial resolution of the increased density in the right basal ganglia.
Figure 2.
Figure 2. (A) MRI T1-sequence of the brain showed an increased signal in the head of caudate and putamen on the right, and to a lesser extent, on the left. (B) Partial resolution of the increased signal abnormality in bilateral basal ganglia.
Figure 3.
Figure 3. An MRI of the brain with gadolinium revealed cortical enhancement in the right insula.
