We herein report an 81-year-old man who presented with intestinal obstruction due to myeloid sarcoma of the small intestine. Diagnostic challenges were overcome using double-balloon enteroscopy and a biopsy, which confirmed the diagnosis of myeloid sarcoma. The patient subsequently developed AML but responded well to chemotherapy. This case underscores the importance of considering myeloid sarcoma in the differential diagnosis of small-bowel tumors. Highlighting the significance of a histological analysis, even in patients presenting with small bowel obstruction, the early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for improving outcomes, particularly in patients without a history of hematologic malignancies. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IwamuroMasaya en-aut-sei=Iwamuro en-aut-mei=Masaya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KamioTomohiro en-aut-sei=Kamio en-aut-mei=Tomohiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=HirataShoichiro en-aut-sei=Hirata en-aut-mei=Shoichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsuedaKatsunori en-aut-sei=Matsueda en-aut-mei=Katsunori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KametakaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Kametaka en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanakaTakehiro en-aut-sei=Tanaka en-aut-mei=Takehiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KawanoSeiji en-aut-sei=Kawano en-aut-mei=Seiji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtsukaMotoyuki en-aut-sei=Otsuka en-aut-mei=Motoyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Pathology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= en-keyword=acute myeloid leukemia kn-keyword=acute myeloid leukemia en-keyword=double-balloon enteroscopy kn-keyword=double-balloon enteroscopy en-keyword=myeloid sarcoma kn-keyword=myeloid sarcoma en-keyword=small intestine kn-keyword=small intestine END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=64 cd-vols= no-issue=14 article-no= start-page=2240 end-page=2244 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2025 dt-pub=20250715 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Wilson's Disease Preceded by Schizophrenia-like Symptoms with Frontal-dominant Leukoencephalopathy en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=We herein report a 26-year-old man diagnosed with Wilson's disease (WD), initially treated for schizophrenia for 11 years. At 26 years old, he was admitted because of status epilepticus. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed frontal-dominant leukoencephalopathy with cystic changes and basal ganglia atrophy. The diagnosis of WD was confirmed based on neuropsychiatric symptoms, Kayser-Fleischer rings, abnormal copper metabolism, and a genetic analysis of ATP7B. Psychotic symptoms in WD can precede neurological manifestations, and extrapyramidal signs may be mistaken for drug-induced Parkinsonism. WD should be considered in patients presenting with progressive Parkinsonism preceded by schizophrenia-like psychiatric symptoms. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MiyanoRyoji en-aut-sei=Miyano en-aut-mei=Ryoji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MitsutakeAkihiko en-aut-sei=Mitsutake en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsukawaTakashi en-aut-sei=Matsukawa en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=ObataSatomi en-aut-sei=Obata en-aut-mei=Satomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KoyamaHiroaki en-aut-sei=Koyama en-aut-mei=Hiroaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=NakaiYudai en-aut-sei=Nakai en-aut-mei=Yudai kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=IshiuraHiroyuki en-aut-sei=Ishiura en-aut-mei=Hiroyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KubotaAkatsuki en-aut-sei=Kubota en-aut-mei=Akatsuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShimizuJun en-aut-sei=Shimizu en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=SakuishiKaori en-aut-sei=Sakuishi en-aut-mei=Kaori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=TodaTatsushi en-aut-sei=Toda en-aut-mei=Tatsushi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Department of Neurology, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo kn-affil= en-keyword=Wilsonfs disease kn-keyword=Wilsonfs disease en-keyword=leukoencephalopathy kn-keyword=leukoencephalopathy en-keyword=brain MRI kn-keyword=brain MRI en-keyword=ATP7B kn-keyword=ATP7B en-keyword=schizophrenia kn-keyword=schizophrenia END
