CO POISONING
Presents with nausea, vomitting and headache.
Neuropsychological sequelae, delayed in 10-30% of victims.
Ischemia and infarct of globus pallidi most common, may
involve caudate nucleus and putamen.
Microscopically demyelination, edema and hemorrhagic
necrosis.
Treatment is hyperbaric oxygen therapy (within 6 hours for
best effect).
Multiple small 2-4mm hyperdense foci in the grey-white matter junction in the temporal and
parietal lobes.
Innumerable T2 hypodense foci with blooming are noted in the cerebrum and
cerebellum predominantly at the grey-white interface with relative sparing of
the deep grey nuclei and corpus callosum.
