Pediatric opioid use-associated neurotoxicity with cerebellar edema (POUNCE) syndrome.

Introduction: Unfortunately, children are not spared from the devastating effects of the ongoing opioid epidemic. In rare cases, young children exposed to opioids present with unique neuroimaging findings affecting the white matter, reminiscent of what was once seen with diacetylmorphine (heroin)-associated leukoencephalopathy. This constellation of findings is termed the pediatric opioid use-associated neurotoxicity with cerebellar edema (POUNCE) syndrome.
