Overview

Case report details bilateral involvement of movement disorders in diabetic striatopathy, suggesting neuroimaging patterns.

Key Points

  • Diabetic striatopathy presents diverse movement disorders, impacting limb coordination significantly.
  • Neuroimaging reveals basal ganglia hyperdensity, with affected limbs showing bilateral involvement in 9.7% of cases.
  • Distinctive movement disorders include hemichorea and hemiballismus, highlighting unique glycemic control challenges.
  • Reversible basal ganglia damage leads to these disorders, underscoring the interplay between diabetes and neurovascular health.
