Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 70264
  • Image ID: 51306522
  • Image stack position: 11/12
  • Plane projection: Sagittal
  • Aux modality: T2
  • Modality: MRI
  • System: Spine
  • Findings: MRI demonstrates elongated and descent of the cerebellar tonsils that extend approximately 11 mm below the foramen magnum along with brain stem (obex) herniation, causing flattening of the medulla anteroposteriorly. The inferior displacement of the cerebellar tonsils measured concerning the McRae line, drawn from the anterior margin (basion) to the posterior margin (opisthion) of the foramen magnum. There is a dorsal bump at the cervicomedullary junction, and crowding at the foramen magnum due to the descent of cerebellar tonsils. The osseous abnormalities associated are platybasia (the basal skull measures 145º), basilar invagination (protrusion of the odontoid tip of 7 mm above the Chamberlain line), hypoplastic clivus, retroflexion of the odontoid process.
