Computed tomography revealed hypodense areas in the brain and ventriculomegaly, Multifocal lesions were noted in magnetic resonance images, which were hypointense in T1-weighted images and hyperintense in T2-weighted images. Ventriculomegaly and intracranial arachnoid cyst were also observed. Finally, it was diagnosed as necrotizing meningoencephalitis by histopathologic examination after necropsy.
