MRI Brain Report: Pontocerebellar Hypoplasia

Max Smart Super Speciality Hospital conducted an MRI brain scan on 2-year-old male patient Rouank Kumar. The MRI revealed a profoundly small cerebellum with vermian hypoplasia within a fluid-filled but normally sized posterior fossa, along with associated pontine hypoplasia. These findings indicate the patient has pontocerebellar hypoplasia, a condition where the pons region of the brainstem and the cerebellum are abnormally small.

MRI Brain Plain

MRI Brain Plain of 04-OCT-2021:


Result :
Serial sections of the brain were obtained in sagittal, cornal and axial planes using T1, T2, and FLAIR images.

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.
