Parkinsonian Syndrome after Methanol Intoxication

Abstract
A case of acute methanol intoxication (AMI) with an exceptional central nervous system (CNS) damage producing a parkinsonian syndrome is reported. This symptomatology persisted as a sequel. Computed axial tomography (CAT) scan showed areas of decreased attenuation at lenticulocapsular regions. The correlation of these CAT scan abnormalities and the pathological findings in necropsy studies described in the literature is noted.
