Abstract
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis is a rare genetic disease with an autosomal recessive inheritance. It is characterized by deposition of cholesterol and cholestanol in various tissues of the body. Imaging features are characteristic and help to clinch the diagnosis. Early diagnosis is extremely important as timely treatment with chenodeoxycholic acid and HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors can halt the further progression of the disease.
