Cerebellar involvement in tuberous sclerosis.
Cerebellar involvement in tuberous sclerosis is apparently less than cerebral involvement. In this article, we report CT and MR imaging findings in four tuberous sclerosis patients with apparent cerebellar changes. In one patient with extensive folial calcifications, hypoplasia of the superior vermis, and agenesis of the inferior vermis were associated findings, and clinical correspondence was evident, consisting of a decreased ability to coordinate movements.
