Transient neurological dysfunction may be associated with uncommon disorders and should prompt consideration of a broad differential diagnosis when assessing patients with episodic symptoms. The most common causes of transient neurological dysfunction include transient ischemic attack (TIA), seizure disorder, and migraine and its variants. However, underlying unusual pathophysiological processes such as brain tumors can also cause transient neurological dysfunction. Here we present a case of a 68-year-old male with oligodendroglial gliomatosis cerebri (OGC) who presented with TIA-like symptoms. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple diffuse T2 hyperintensities within the white and gray matter. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy was suggestive of gliomatosis cerebri and was particularly helpful in this case. The diagnosis of OGC was confirmed by histopathology and molecular genetic studies on brain biopsy tissue. In this report, we discuss the clinical and radiological characteristics of OGC and highlight the unusual presentation of this case.
