The patient was admitted to the PICU with a Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score of 3T, and an emergent CT scan of the head showed diffuse cerebral edema (Figure 1).
MRI from patient 1. Hypersignal on FLAIR within the sulci of the bilateral cerebral hemispheres, especially in the (A) posterior parietal and (B) occipital regions with minimal restricted diffusion in the extra-axial spaces of the bilateral temporal and occipital regions, and also increased linear enhancement in the sulci that is likely vascular and suggests the presence of hyperemia. MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; FLAIR, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery.

MRI revealed hypersignal on the fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence within the sulci of the bilateral cerebral hemispheres, especially in the posterior parietal and occipital regions (Figures 2A,B) with increased linear enhancement in the sulci, which suggests the presence of hyperemia and complete opacification of the bilateral mastoid air cells, middle ears, and petrous apices.
