Background Reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES) is known as a neuro-imaging syndrome with recurrent but reversible lesion of the corpus callosum, characterized by nonspecific but usually mild encephalopathies and specific imaging manifestations.There are few published reports in the field of oncology. Case presentation A 33-year-old female with right breast cancer and with no particular family history was admitted to hospital with high fever and severe headache, after receiving adjuvant radiotherapy. Blood routine test upon admission suggested neutropenia, considering myelosuppression associated with radiotherapy. There were no definite findings of common pathogenic microorganism, and no imaging indication of certain infectious sites other than a likely reversible corpus callosum syndrome suggested by brain MRI, which was relieved after systemic antibiotic therapy and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor injection. Conclusions Reversible splenial lesion syndrome is a kind of clinical-imaging syndrome with multiple clinical manifestations and etiologies. This breast cancer patient after postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy develops a complication of RESLES that rings an alarm bell to the oncologists not to easily recognize the corpus callosum lesion as infarction or metastasis. Meanwhile, the potential pathogenic mechanisms need to be explored further.
