Leukoencephalopathy With Calcifications And Cysts
A rare genetic cerebral small vessel disease characterized by leukoencephalopathy and cerebral calcification and cysts due to diffuse cerebral microangiopathy resulting in microcystic and macrocystic parenchymal degeneration. The condition can present at any age from early childhood to late adulthood and manifests as a progressive cerebral degeneration.
