    Mega cisterna magna, a cause of posterior fossa cysts, is detailed. This study reviews diagnostic imaging and presents a case diagnosed using metrizamide cisternography.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroimaging
    • Radiology
    • Pediatric Neurology

    Background:

    • Posterior fossa cysts can arise from various causes, including mega cisterna magna.
    • Accurate diagnosis of midline posterior fossa cystic structures is crucial for appropriate management.

    Observation:

    • Mega cisterna magna presents as a midline, extra-axial, posterior fossa cyst.
    • Computed tomography (CT) provides key features for diagnosing these cystic structures.

    Findings:

    • This review discusses the differential diagnosis of midline posterior fossa cysts.
    • A case of mega cisterna magna diagnosed via metrizamide cisternography is presented.

    Implications:

    • Metrizamide cisternography is a valuable technique for diagnosing mega cisterna magna.
