T2/fluid-attenuated inversion recovery–weighted MRI brain sequences demonstrate (A) an extensive hyperintense subcortical periventricular lesion involving the left frontal, parietal, and occipital white matter, which caused mild mass effect on the posterior horn of the left lateral ventricle during the first attack, and (B–D) appearances of asymptomatic hyperintense periventricular, juxtacortical, and infratentorial lesions bilaterally in between attacks, followed by (E) a right hyperintense fronto-parieto-occipital subcortical periventricular lesion in addition to the previously known left posterior region of encephalomalacia and surrounding gliosis and ex vacuo dilation of the left posterior lateral ventricle during the second attack.
