Question

The patient was hospitalized twice due to two episodes of high fever seizures. The magnetic resonance imaging description states that there are patchy areas with slightly longer T1 and T2 signals in the bilateral parietal white matter areas, and the diagnosis is patchy abnormal signal shadows in the bilateral parietal subcortical white matter area (considering white matter demyelination).

Answer

White matter demyelination may be the cause of the patient’s high fever-induced seizures. It is recommended that the patient go to the hospital for examination and cooperate with the doctor for standardized treatment, regular follow-ups, avoid overexertion, and prevent infections. Currently, there is no effective treatment method for demyelinating diseases in Western medicine.
