[Ischemic cerebellar and brain stem lesions in CT findings].
The author analysed CT studies of 117 patients with ischaemic lesions of the cerebellum and brainstem. The clinical appearance in these cases is often unspecific. This was confirmed by false clinical diagnosis in most patients. CT diagnosis is particularly difficult in cases with mass effect which was found in 24.8% of the patients. Follow-up CT studies can help in proper diagnosis. The territory of the superior cerebellar artery was most frequently involved in the cerebellum, while the territory of the paramedian perforating in the brainstem. In 26.5% of the patients ischaemic lesions of the cerebellum and/or brainstem were bilateral, in 39.3% were accompanied by cerebral infarcts. It can be concluded that they are the component of general vascular insufficiency of the whole bain.
