Abstract
:

Marchiafava-Bignami disease (MBD) is defined pathologically as callosal degeneration associated with chronic alcoholism. We report a patient with MBD with acute lesions confined in the precentral cortex and splenium. Various magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) modalities were performed sequentially to elucidate the pathophysiology.
