Isolated Central Sulcus Hemorrhage: A Rare Presentation Most Frequently Associated with Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy

Figure 2

MR images of the brain. Axial FLAIR image (image a) of the index case confirms the finding of left central sulcus hemorrhage seen on the CT scan. Coronal gradient echo images (image b) demonstrate corresponding loss of signal within the left central sulcus. Coronal gradient echo images (images c, d) demonstrate signal loss within other adjacent cortical and subcortical areas consistent with hemorrhages and siderosis. Imaging findings and clinical presentation support the working diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy.
