Summary
Isolated Fourth Ventricle (IFV) can cause lower cranial nerve and cerebellum dysfunction. This study presents an adult case mimicking Guillain-Barré
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Neurosurgery
- Ventriculomegaly
Background:
- Isolated Fourth Ventricle (IFV) is a condition characterized by symptoms arising from the fourth ventricle's dilation.
- IFV is often associated with the occlusion of the aqueduct of Sylvius and the foramina of Luschka and Magendie, frequently following shunt procedures for internal hydrocephalus.
- The precise etiological background of IFV remains incompletely understood.
