We describe radioclinical findings in a 4-year-old male child with enteric encephalopathy. Magnetic resonance imaging brain showed lesions in the corpus callosum with restricted diffusion in the white matter of bilateral cerebral hemisphere. Mild encephalopathy with reversible splenial lesion has been described in children and adults due to various causes, although very few have been reported due to enteric fever.
