J. Neuroradiol.2004 Aug 01; 25 AB - Summary: Parkinsonism and portosystemic encephalopathy (PSE) are cerebral disorders associated with motor and neuropsychological dysfunctions that may occur in patients with chronic liver disease. We describe a patient with parkinsonism and neuroradiologic and 1H spectroscopic findings of PSE associated with a large congenital intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt. Chronic liver disease was absent. After endovascular treatment, we documented a progressive reversal of parkinsonism and PSE on the basis of clinical, neuroradiologic, and spectroscopic criteria.
