Cerebellitis is a rarely encountered complication of isoniazid therapy. Its occurrence is usually associated with concomitant renal disease and haemodialysis. Herein, we report the case of a patient with this complication who presented with isolated bilateral symmetrical dentate nucleus T2 hyperintensities on magnetic resonance imaging. Isoniazid neurotoxicity has never been reported to cause bilateral dentate hyperintensities, for which the differentials are few and include metronidazole toxicity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
