Extrapontine Myelinolysis: A Case Report
摘要
Osmotic demyelination usually occurs in patients with rapid correction of hyponatremia. It is a disease of the central nervous system and can involve the pontine or extrapontine areas. It a usually irreversible and can only be managed by prevention. The rate of increase in the plasma sodium level per hour and within twenty four hours are the key points for preventing osmotic demyelination. We report a 37-year old man in whom osmotic demyelination occurred in the extrapontine area (extrapontine myelinolysis) after rapid correction of hyponatremia.
