Lipoma of corpus callosum is a rare intracranial tumour or malformation. The appearances of this tumour in computerised tomography (CT) brain scans are fairly specific. A case report is presented with a short discussion of reported cases and review of literature and CT features of the tumour (JPMA 36: 149, 1988).

OBJECTIVES To determine the clinical presentation and treatment outcome of pediatric intracranial cavernous malformation (CM) in a single-centered institution. METHODS Clinical data review of 30 patients under 18 years-old who had undergone surgery for cavernous malformation from January 1993 to December 2011. RESULTS The Study Group included 18 males and 12 females (mean age: 8.7 years-old...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the nature, incidence, and radiologic appearance of intracranial vascular anomalies that occur in association with periorbital lymphatic malformation (LM) and lymphaticovenous malformation (LVM). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed clinical records and imaging studies of 33 patients ranging in age from the neonata...

A patient with a mild left hemiparesis and a malformation of cortical development in the right hemisphere was investigated with fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) and DTI (diVusion tensor imaging). The motor cortex was studied using a finger tapping fMRI experiment. The fibre orientation was studied by displaying the principal eigenvector of the diVusion tensor in the spatially normal...

A patient with a mild left hemiparesis and a malformation of cortical development in the right hemisphere was investigated with fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) and DTI (diffusion tensor imaging). The motor cortex was studied using a finger tapping fMRI experiment. The fibre orientation was studied by displaying the principal eigenvector of the diffusion tensor in the spatially norm...

Between January, 1981, and July, 1991, 17 infants under 1 month of age were admitted to The Hospital for Sick Children with the signs and symptoms of a Chiari II malformation. These patients' presentation included swallowing difficulty (71%), stridor (59%), apneic spells (29%), aspiration (12%), weakness of cry (18%), and arm weakness (53%). Decompression of the Chiari II malformation was perfo...

d evelopmental venous anomaly is a widely used synonym for venous angioma or cerebral venous malformation [1]. DVAs are the most frequently encountered cerebral vascular malformation and are frequently reported as incidental findings in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging studies. Radiological and autopsy series have demonstrated that DVAs occur in 2.5 to 3% of the general popula...
