Synthetic cannabinoids (SC) are referred such as ‘Spice’ in Europe, ‘K2’ İn USA, on the other hand ‘Bonzai’ in Turkey. Bonzai has recently popular SC herbal-drug in Turkey which abuse increasingly, not very well known about its complications and neuro-radiological findings in literature. As a result of this it is substantial for radiologist be aware of neuro-radiological findings may be related to Bonzai or Bonzai like SC complications and thought as a differential diagnosis at unknown or indeterminate patient history. In this case report, we presented Bonzai abuse case neuro-radiological findings that computed tomography showed hypodense areas may be related to ischemia, on the other hand magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated at T2 weighted (T2W) and fluid attenuation inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence hyperintensities in those areas are compatible with vasogenic edema . In addition, corpus callosum splenium has a signal increase at FLAIR sequence and multifocal intraparencymal hematomas has periferally edema are also shown.
Key words: Bonzai, Pres, Rcvs, magnetic resonance imaging

Sentetik kannabinoidler (SK) Avrupa’ da Spice, ABD’ de K2, diğer taraftan Türkiye de Bonzai ismiyle popülerleşmişlerdir. Çağımızın tehlikesi Bonzai, komplikasyonları ve nöroradyolojik bulguları literatürde çok bilinmeyen, son zamanlarda Türkiye’ de popüler olan bir bitkisel kaynaklı sentetik kannabinoid ilaçtır. Bunun sonucu olarak Bonzai veya Bonzai ilişkili komplikasyonlar konusunda radyoloğun nöroradyolojik olarak farkında olması önemlidir. Biz bu olgu sunumunda, bilgisayarlı tomografide iskemi ile ilişkili olabilecek hipodens alanları olan, diğer taraftan magnetik rezonans görüntülemesinde T2 ağırlıklı ve FLAIR sekanslarda vazojenik ödemle uyumlu olduğu düşünülen Bonzai suistimali olgusunun kranial görüntüleme bulgularını sunduk. Ek olarak FLAIR görüntülemede korpus kallozumda sinyal artışı ve kanama odakları izlendi
