AI Article Synopsis
- Acquired Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome, or hemispheric atrophy, occurs when one cerebral hemisphere loses volume due to early life injury.
- Crossed cerebellar diaschisis involves dysfunction or atrophy of a cerebellar hemisphere caused by damage to the opposite side of the brain.
- The text discusses MRI findings in two patients who have both acquired Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome and crossed cerebellar diaschisis.
Article Abstract
Acquired Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome, also known as hemispheric atrophy, is characterized by loss of volume of one cerebral hemisphere from an insult in early life. Crossed cerebellar diaschisis refers to dysfunction/atrophy of cerebellar hemisphere which is secondary to contralateral supratentorial insult. We describe magnetic resonance imaging findings in two cases of acquired Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome with crossed cerebro-cerebellar diaschisis.
