3y M Pomeranian with a recent history of seizures and circling to the left. There are multiple foci of marked T2 and FLAIR hyperintensity
(a,d: arrowheads) and T1 hypointensity (b: arrowheads) involving the cerebral cortex and regional T2 hyperintensity of the white matter
and caudate nucleus on the right (a,d: arrow). There is mild amorphous contrast enhancement of the right caudate nucleus (e,f: arrow)
and of the meninges overlying the cerebral cortical lesions (e,f: arrowheads). Postmortem examination revealed extensive areas of
cortical necrosis and encephalomalacia, consistent with necrotizing meningoencephalitis.
