Coarctation of the lateral ventricles: an alternative explanation for subependymal pseudocysts.
Three cases of sonographically demonstrated cystic areas adjacent to the superolateral margins of the lateral ventricles are described. The cystic areas are considered secondary to a coarctation of the lateral ventricle, a normal variant. The cystic areas are not considered post-hemorrhagic or ischemic sequelae.
