Role of MRI in the diagnosis of Mills syndrome.
We report the case of a 69 year old man who presented hemiplegia with an ascending spread suspected to be a primary form of Mills syndrome. The patient underwent MRI, which showed multiple lacunar infarcts of the periventricular and subcortical white matter. We recommend that patients with a suspected primary form of Mills syndrome should be studied with MRI.
