ABSTRACT
In cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), clinical presentation with movement disorders such as dystonia and progressive supranuclear palsy-phenotype are rarely reported. None of the CADASIL cases, to our knowledge, has been reported with chorea. Herein, we describe a Korean woman with CADASIL who had presented with chorea. 18F-fl uorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) showed hypometabolism in the right basal ganglia. We found decreased FDG uptake of the right basal ganglia by SPM analysis.
