Marked elevation of urinary β2-microglobulin in patients with reversible splenial lesions: A small case series.
Journal of the Neurological Sciences 2016 September 16
The magnetic resonance imaging findings of reversible isolated lesions with transiently reduced diffusion in the splenium of corpus callosum of patients with a wide spectrum of pathological conditions are referred to as reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES). Clinically mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS) is probably included within the spectrum of RESLES; however, its exact pathophysiology is not known. Here, we describe three patients with MERS and one patient with RESLES, all of whom showed elevated urinary β2-microglobulin regardless of diagnosis and presence of pathogens. Elevated urinary β2-microglobulin suggested that an excessive immune response might play a role in the pathophysiology of reversible splenial lesions.
