Cerebellar vermian epidermal cyst

Cerebellar vermian hypoplasia in dogs.

Six dogs with cerebellar dysplasia, in which the cerebellar vermis was hypoplastic, are described. Clinical signs in these dogs were noted around 2 weeks of age and included ataxia, dysmetria, and intention tremors. A variable portion of the caudal cerebellar vermis was absent in each dog; portions of the cerebellar hemispheres and flocculus also were absent in some of them. Neurons in certain ...

Cerebellar vermian hypoplasia in a Cocker Spaniel

An eight-week-old female Cocker Spaniel was presented with ataxia, dysmetria and intention tremor. At 16 weeks, the clinical signs did not progress. Investigation including imaging studies of the skull and cerebrospinal fluid analysis were performed. The computed tomography revealed a cyst-like dilation at the level of the fourth ventricle associated with vermal defect in the cerebellum. After ...

Cerebellar vermian atrophy after neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although pathologic evidence of cerebellar injury due to birth asphyxia is well described, neuroimaging evidence is sparse. The primary purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the early and late imaging findings in the cerebellum of patients who had neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy with thalamic edema shown by neonatal CT. The secondary aims were to va...

Penile Epidermal Inclusion Cyst

We report a case of epidermal inclusion cyst in a 32-year-old male. This was a complication of circumcision that was neglected over years to form stones and urethrocutaneous fistula. Complete excision of the cyst and repair of the fistula were performed successfully. Histopathological examination confirmed our diagnosis.
