  • Title: [Puttman-Reye syndrome and ekiri. Neuro-anatomical study and attempt at classification].
    Author: Jaouen M, Marty-Double C, Pagès A.
    Journal: Ann Anat Pathol (Paris); 1975; 20(5):453-78. PubMed ID: 1231572.
    Abstract:
    The authors report two cases of Puttman Reye syndrome: one, classical, involving a young child with a fatal encephalopathy with visceral fatty infiltration, the other, less typical, not showing any signs of visceral fatty degeneration. Both cases were subjected to complete anatomical examination of the brain, revealing marked cerebral oedema, in localised areas or in a laminar distribution, with degenerative changes in the neurones and slight demyelinisation. The authors, on the basis both on the classical appearances of the first case as well as the atypical features of the second, envisage a clinical, anatomical and biological link between the Puttman-Reye syndrome,. Thai encephalopathy and Ekiri, which they consider to represent a single entity.
