Abstract
• The neuropathological basis for myoclonic encephalopathy associated with neuroblastoma has never been demonstrated. In our 6-year-old patient, the brain changes were restricted to the cerebellum and consisted of demyelination, gliosis, and loss of Purkinje's cells.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
