DIENCEPHALIC SYNDROME OF EMACIATION

A CASE REPORT

KUO-YORK CHYNN M.D.1 and ROBERT SHARKEY M.D.2

A case of diencephalic syndrome of emaciation in a 21 month old girl is reported. The enormous size of the tumor of the hypothalamus revealed by pneumoencephalography and pantopaque ventriculography was in contrast to striking lack of neurologic deficits and absence of intracranial hypertension. The literature is briefly surveyed with special reference to the significance of air encephalography in the diagnosis of this rare and interesting syndrome.
