Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the spectrum of computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in congenital brain anomalies. Methods: MR imaging was performed in 25 patients with 39 anomalies. 23 anomalies also undergone CT examination. Results: Diagnosis of MRI was correct in all cases. CT scanning detected 14 (61%) anomalies. Corpus callosum agenesis (n=11), Arnold-Chiari malformation (n=4), nasal, frontal and orbital encephalocel (n= 4), occipital meningocel and meningoencephalocel (n=2) and Dandy-Walker malformation (n=1) were detected. Moreover, 4 cases were diagnosed as heterotopia, 4 as lissencephaly, 4 as focal cortical dysplasia, 3 as schizencephaly and 2 as hemimegaloencephaly. Conclusion: MR imaging should be preferred in partial corpus callosum agenesis and heterotopies. CT scanning is required for cranial bone anomalies.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada konjenital anomalilerde manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) ve bilgisayarlı tomografinin (BT) tanısal değerini araştırmayı amaçladık. Yöntem: Konjenital anomalisi olan 25 hastadaki 39 anomalinin MRG ve 23 anomalinin BT bulguları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Olguların hepsine MRG ile doğru tanı konuldu. BT incelemesi yapılan 23 olgunun 14’üne (% 61) bilgisayarlı tomografi ile doğru tanı kondu. 11 olguda korpus kallozum agenezisi, 4 olguda Arnold- Chiari malformasyonu, 4 olguda nazal-frontal ve orbital ensefalosel, 2 olguda oksipital meningosel ve meningoensefalosel, 1 olguda Dandy –Walker malformasyonu vardı. 4 olguda heterotopi, 4 olguda lizensefali, 4 olguda fokal kortikal displazi, 3 olguda şizensefali ve 2 olguda hemimegalensefali görüldü. Sonuç: Parsiyel korpus kallozum agenezisi ve heterotopilerde MRG tercih edilmelidir. Kemik anomalileri ile birlikte olan beyin anomalilerinde bilgisayarlı tomografi gerekli bir yöntemdir.
