AI Article Synopsis

  • Neuronal nuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a rare and progressive neurological condition that leads to degeneration over time.
  • The case presented involves a 68-year-old man who experienced confusion and behavioral issues, ultimately diagnosed with NIID through a skin biopsy.
  • The authors recommend that when patients display unusual symptoms, observing specific high signals in the dermatomedullary junction on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) can help identify NIID.

Article Abstract

Neuronal nuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a rare and chronic progressive neurological degenerative disease. We presented a 68-year-old man with paroxysmal orientation disorder 1 year prior, mental and behavioral disorders for 2 days, and confirmed the diagnosis of NIID with skin biopsy. We suggest that patients with atypical clinical symptoms showed characteristic high signal in the dermatomedullary junction on DWI; NIID should be considered.
