Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzuddin Shlmn / M / 15 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizures since 1 year of age.
C/O progressive diminished vision bilaterally since 2 years.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the brain was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted , proton and T2 Weighted axial images.

3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

The right hippocampus appears slightly smaller in volume when compared to left and shows a subtle hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images. This suggest right hippocampal sclerosis.

The left hippocampal complex is unremarkable.

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

Inflammatory changes are noted in the left maxillary sinus and ethmoidal air cells.

Incidental note is made of enlarged adenoids and Thornwaldts cyst.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of right hippocampal sclerosis.
