title: [SPECT-identified hypoperfusion of the left temporomesial structures in a Kleine-Levin syndrome].
abstract: A 13-year-old boy developed typical features of Kleine-Levin syndrome. Routine investigations and MRI were normal. SPECT, performed both during an attack and during a symptom-fee period, demonstrated clear hypoperfusion of the left mesiotemporal structures. The possible implications of this finding are discussed.
