Abstract

A 64-year-old diabetic female patient presented with involuntary unilateral hyperkinetic movements of the left limbs. Cranial MRI showed a contralateral high signal intensity putaminal lesion on T1-weighted images without any signal changes in the T2-weighted images. This finding is characteristic for hemichorea-hemiballism associated with insufficiently treated diabetes mellitus. Additionally, proton MR spectroscopy was performed and revealed a decreased N-acetylaspartate/creatine and N-acetylaspartate/choline ratio, indicating neuronal damage of the contralateral putamen.
