Abstract
A 9 month old boy was examined because of his hypotone and macrocephaly.
His CT scan revealed progressive white matter low density predominantly in the frontal region and tentative diagnosis of Alexander disease was made.
EEG showed bifrontal dominant slow wave. We need careful attention to such minimal low density in the white matter on CT examination in the cases of macrocephaly.
