ABSTRACT
The most characteristic radiological finding following methanol intoxication is bilateral necrosis of the putamina with varying degrees of hemorrhage. We report here on a 61-year-old Russian male with methanol intoxication who had delayed cerebral hemorrhage with a fatal course. The magnetic resonance image taken on admission revealed diffusion restriction lesions in the bilateral putamina, thalamus, and frontal and occipital subcortical white matter, without hemorrhage. Brain computed tomography performed on the 18th day revealed extensive bilateral hemorrhage in the multiple subcortical white matter, which led ultimately to death.
