| Abstract | Hypoglycemia is the sudden decrease in serum glucose level <50mg/dL. Neurological manifestations complicating profound and prolonged hypoglycemia range from reversible focal deficits and transient encephalopathy to irreversible coma. Here, we report magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of a patient with prolonged hypoglylicemia. A 47-year-old woman with a history of insulin dependent diabetes mellitus has been brought to the emergency room by her relatives. She used mistakenly overdose insulin injection and probably stayed 11 hours with low level blood glucose. The initial blood sugar level was 39.6 mg/dL at the emergency department visit, which was recovered urgently by 50% dextrose. MR imaging revealed high intensities at the bilateral posterior parietal cortices, corona radiata and hippocampus, but not in the basal ganglia. Seventy-two hour after admission, confluent lesions in the posterior parietal, temporal, frontal cortices and splenium of corpus callosum were more prominent on DWI and FLAIR, and did not match typical arterial territories. None of the lesions were enhanced on contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images. The prognosis or neurologic sequelae of hypoglycemic encephalopathy may depend on the severity and duration of hypoglycemia and persistent, diffuse involvement of the cerebral cortex, basal ganglia, or hippocampus on the following MR imaging. MR imaging findings in hypoglycemic vegetative state can be helpful in the differential diagnosis distinguishing from other neurologic conditions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
