123-Iodine metaiodobenzylguanidine (I-123 MIBG) imaging is frequently used in the assessment of sympathetic innervation and autonomic dysfunction in patients with cardiac failure, neurodegenerative Parkinson's syndrome, multiple system atrophy, myotonic dystrophy, and diabetic mellitus. The etiology of pseudo-obstruction remains unknown with likely imbalance between sympathetic and parasympathetic innervation proposed as a hypothesis. We present a case demonstrating the utility of I-123 MIBG scintigraphy for evaluating a case of pseudo-obstruction requiring frequent hospitalization due to progressive complex autoimmune neurological disorder.
