Wilkinson et al. (1987) conducted a case report in Adrenoleukodystrophy (n=2). Local trauma (head injury) was evaluated on Focal clinical and radiological features of demyelination. Local head trauma in two boys with adrenoleukodystrophy was associated with focal clinical and radiological features of demyelination in the region of the injury.
