case_images: CT showed diffuse periventricular hypodensities first diagnosed as age-related leukoaraiosis with no obvious signs of recent ischemic or hemorrhagic cerebrovascular accident. Careful examination of brain CT showed lateral ventriculomegaly, which was disproportionate to the age-related cortical cerebral atrophy (Figure 1).

case_images: In addition to disproportionate ventriculomegaly, brain MRI showed also periventricular hyperintensities on T2-weighted sequences suggesting transependymal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) resorption (Figure 2).
