Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 42207
  • Image ID: 18723635
  • Image stack position: 131/160
  • Plane projection: Sagittal
  • Modality: MRI
  • System: Central Nervous System
  • Findings: Gross enlargement of the lateral and third ventricles, with superior bowing of the markedly thinned corpus callosum. The fourth ventricle is normal in caliber. Centrally, the cerebral aqueduct has a focal membrane/web without any convincing flow on CSF flow studies. No evidence of tectal plate mass. The cerebral white matter volumes are diffusely reduced, presumably related to a longstanding hydrocephalus, which is associated with the typical skull findings. No periventricular hyperintensity to suggest transependymal edema. Conclusion: Gross hydrocephalus sparing the fourth ventricle due to aqueductal stenosis.
