Overview
The most common cause of central pontine myelinolysis is rapid correction(>48-hours duration) of hyponatremia in patients with the history of prolonged hyponatremia. Other causes of central pontine myelinolysis may include: Lengthened orthotopic liver transplantation, hypophosphatemia secondary to refeeding syndrome, deficiencies in neuronal/glial cell energy supply and utilization which produce glial cell apoptosis and thus the clinical syndrome of central pontine myelinolysis and prolonged ischemia.

Common Causes
The most common cause of central pontine myelinolysis is rapid correction(>48-hours duration) of hyponatremia in patients with the history of prolonged hyponatremia.[1][2]
Other causes of central pontine myelinolysis may include:[3][4][5][6]
- Lengthened orthotopic liver transplantation
- Hypophosphatemia secondary to refeeding syndrome
- Deficiencies in neuronal/glial cell energy supply and utilization which produce glial cell apoptosis and thus the clinical syndrome of central pontine myelinolysis
- Prolonged ischemia
