T2-weighted MRI in a 41-year-old woman who presented with acute parkinsonism following slow correction of hyponatremia resulting from repeated vomiting. MRI showed symmetrical hyperintensities in caudate nuclei (small, thin, black arrow) and putamena (long black arrow), with sparing of the globi pallidi (broad black arrow), consistent with extrapontine myelinolysis.
