Hemorrhagic Epidermoid Cyst in Cerebellar Vermis.
Intracranial epidermoid cysts are usually located in the paramedian regions with characteristic imaging features. Intracystic hemorrhage is rarely reported with most in the cerebellopontine angle area. We described a case of hemorrhagic epidermoid cyst in cerebellar vermis. The patient was a 21-year-old male presenting with a first episode of convulsive seizure attack as the initial and sole sy...
متن کاملFamilial agenesis of the cerebellar vermis
SOME TWO YEARS AGO we investigated a child with profound psychomotor retardation who had had an occipital meningoencephalocele removed at birth. Contrast studies were carried out which showed a large midline defect in the posterior fossa and absence of the vermis. At the time we disregarded the nurses’ comments about the child’s abnormal breathing. A year later, Dr. P. P. Demers referred this p...
متن کاملEnlarged cerebellar vermis in Williams syndrome.
Williams syndrome (WMS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by relative preservations of language ability and facial processing despite deficits in overall intelligence, problem solving, and visuospatial processing. Subjects with WMS also display hypersocial behavior and excessive linguistic affect during conversations and when giving narratives. Neuroimaging studies have shown global redu...
متن کاملUneven distribution of NG2 cells in the rat cerebellar vermis and changes in aging
We describe by NG2 (neuron-glia chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan 2) immunocytochemistry an uneven distribution of NG2 glial cells in the rat cerebellum, being them more represented in the central lobules of the cerebellar vermis, belonging to the cerebrocerebellum. The cerebellar distribution of NG2 cells changes in aging rats, in which the area where the cells appear to be densely scattered t...
متن کاملCellular and Axonal Diversity in Molecular Layer Heterotopia of the Rat Cerebellar Vermis
Molecular layer heterotopia of the cerebellar primary fissure are a characteristic of many rat strains and are hypothesized to result from defect of granule cells exiting the external granule cell layer during cerebellar development. However, the cellular and axonal constituents of these malformations remain poorly understood. In the present report, we use histochemistry and immunocytochemistry...
