Rhombencephalosynapsis, a rare cerebellar malformation, involves vermis absence and fused hemispheres, identifiable via MRI. This report details a symptomatic case with hydrocephalus, highlighting diagnostic possibilities.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Developmental Biology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Rhombencephalosynapsis is a rare congenital cerebellar malformation.
  • It is characterized by the absence of the cerebellar vermis and fusion of the cerebellar hemispheres at the midline.
  • Diagnosis is typically made using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

Observation:

  • This study reports a symptomatic case of rhombencephalosynapsis.
  • The case presented with moderate hydrocephalus.
  • Coexisting brain anomalies were noted, aiding in early diagnosis.

Findings:

  • Rhombencephalosynapsis is identifiable through MRI.
  • No specific associated syndrome has been previously described.
  • Early diagnosis is facilitated by the presence of other brain anomalies.

Implications:

  • This case contributes to the understanding of rhombencephalosynapsis presentations.
  • Highlights the importance of MRI in diagnosing cerebellar malformations.
  • Suggests potential for earlier diagnosis and management of associated conditions like hydrocephalus.
