  • Title: Difficulties in diagnosing congenital posterior fossa fluid collections after shunting procedures.
    Author: Wolpert SM, Scott RM, Runge VM, Kwan ES.
    Journal: AJNR Am J Neuroradiol; 1987; 8(4):653-6. PubMed ID: 3113202.
    Abstract:
    The differential diagnosis of retrocerebellar fluid collections in infants is important because of the prognostic implications. Usually the diagnoses are easy; however, shunting of the lateral ventricles or of the fluid collections may alter the appearance of the lesions, precluding accurate diagnosis. Under such circumstances a careful study of all the sequential radiologic studies is necessary.
