- Abstract
- Glufosinate ammonium (GLA) is a broad-spectrum herbicide used worldwide. Transient lesions involving the splenium of the corpus callosum have been described in patients with encephalitis or encephalopathy of varied etiology, but have not been reported in association with GLA poisoning. We describe a patient who had attempted suicide by ingesting GLA-containing herbicide, with a focal diffusion-restrictive lesion in the splenium of the corpus callosum on MRI, which had disappeared four weeks later with no sequalae.글루포시네이트 암모늄은 전 세계적으로 사용되는 광범위 제초제이다. 뇌량 팽대를 포함하는 일시적인 병변은 뇌염 또는 다양한 원인의 뇌 질환을 가진 환자에서 기술되어 왔지만 glufosinate ammonium (이하 GLA) 중독과 관련하여 보고된 적은 없다. 우리는 GLA 함유 제초제를 복용하여 자살을 시도했던 환자에서, 자기공영영상의 확산강조에서 뇌량 팽대 부위의 확산제한병변이 4주 후의 추적검사에서 아무런 후유증 없이 소실되었던 증례에 대해 보고하고자 한다.
