Isolated rhomboencephalosynapsis – a rare cerebellar anomaly
BACKGROUND Rhomboencephalosynapsis (RES, RS) is a unique entity usually recognized in infancy based on neuroimaging. Cerebellar fusion and absence of cerebellar vermis is often associated with supratentorial findings. Since now there are about 50 cases described worldwide, with approximately 36 patients diagnosed by MRI. The authors present the first in Poland case of this uncommon malformation...
متن کاملA rare cause of cerebellar ataxia syndrome: superficial siderosis of central nervous system.
PURPOSE To describe and emphasize importance of recognizing superficial siderosis (SS) of the central nervous system (CNS) when assessing cerebellar ataxia syndrome CASE REPORT Superficial siderosis (SS) of the central nervous system (CNS) is a rare disorder that results from chronic hemosiderin deposition in the subpial layers of the brain and the spinal cord. Although recurrent bleeding in ...
متن کاملCerebellar infarct caused by spontaneous thrombosis of a developmental venous anomaly of the posterior fossa.
Spontaneous thrombosis of a posterior fossa developmental venous anomaly (DVA) caused a nonhemorrhagic cerebellar infarct in a 31-year-old man who also harbored a midbrain cavernous angioma. DVA thrombosis was well depicted on CT and MR studies and was proved at angiography by the demonstration of an endoluminal clot.
متن کاملAn anomalous developmental venous anomaly.
Developmental venous anomalies (DVA) are congenital variants of cerebral veins, found incidentally at autopsy in 2.6% of the population, which are most often asymptomatic. Symptomatic compression of a cranial nerve by the collecting vein of a DVA is extremely rare, such as tinnitus from compression of the vestibulocochlear nerve. A 51-year-old man presented with 1 week of intermittent vertigo a...
متن کاملExercise Induced Transient Neurological Deficit in a Patient with Cerebellar Developmental Venous Anomaly.
BACKGROUND The association of venous angiomas or developmental venous anomalies (DVA) with transient neurological deficit is rare. We present a rare case of a cerebellar developmental venous anomaly resulting in transient neurological deficits. CASE DESCRIPTION A 58-year-old man with recurrent left sided facial dysesthesia, hemiparesis, and mild difficulty ambulating after exercise. A similar...
