INVESTIGATION REPORT
The study reveals profoundly small cerebellum with vermian hypoplasia with in a fluid filled , but normal sized posterior fossa with associated
pontine hypoplasia
Brain parenchyma shows normal MR morphology and gray-white differentiation. There is no focal parenchymal lesion.
The basal cisterns and superficial subarachnoid CSF spaces are normal.
The ventricular system is normal.
The midbrain, pons and medulla are normal.
Visualized parts of the sella,5th, 7th and 8th nerve complexes are grossly normal on routine brain imaging.
Major flow voids are present.
Patent cavum septum pellucidum and vergae noted
IMPRESSION: Profoundly small cerebellum with vermian hypoplasia with in a fluid filled, but normal sized posterior fossa with associated pontine
hypoplasia.
Findings could represent the spectrum of pontocerebellar hypoplasia.
