Özet

Two patients with phenylketonuria are reported with white matter lesions. Diffusion magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed restricted diffusion patterns (high signal) on b = 1000 s/mm(2) images associated with low apparent diffusion coefficient values ranging between 0.44 x 10(-3) mm(2)/s and 0.56 x 10(-3) mm(2)/s. On proton MR spectroscopy obtained in I of the patients, a prominent peak resonating at approximately 3.80 ppm was consistently present attributable to the peak rising from the a-proton of the phenylalanine molecule.
