Ani Nikoghosyan, Julie Lambert
TL;DR
A patient with pancolitis and low consciousness showed a rare MRI brain sign linked to uremic encephalopathy.
Contribution
Highlights the lentiform fork sign as a potential indicator of uremic encephalopathy in critically ill patients.
Findings
Lentiform fork sign observed in a patient with metabolic acidosis and renal failure.
The sign correlates with uremic encephalopathy in critically ill patients with low consciousness.
