Mevalonic Aciduria in a Pediatric Patient: A Case Report and Literature Review of Neuroimaging Findings.

Mevalonic aciduria is a rare autosomal recessive disorder resulting from mevalonate kinase deficiency. Neuroimaging findings associated with the disease have been documented in only a few case reports. We present a case of mevalonic aciduria with both already reported and novel neuroimaging findings and conduct a literature review regarding the role of neuroimaging in the understanding and diagnosis of mevalonate kinase deficiency disorders.

Resolution of Wing-Beating Tremor and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Lesions in Wilson's Disease Following Penicillamine.

Background: The wing-beating tremor, characteristic of Wilson's disease (WD), is a disabling symptom that can be resistant to anti-copper and anti-tremor medications.

Phenomenology Shown: This video illustrates severe bilateral wing-beating tremor, moderate head and lower limb tremors, mild cervical dystonia, and subtle cerebellar ataxia, with nearly resolution after penicillamine treatment.

Educational Value: This case highlights a typical aspect of WD, emphasizing the importance of early detection and treatment, and its correlation with MRI findings.
