Age: 10
Sex: Male
Indication: Seizure
Findings concerning for a right thalamic abscess measuring 4 x 2 cm with surrounding vasogenic edema and associated mass effect with 5 mm right to left midline shift and compression of the third ventricle.
Left frontal approach ventricular drain terminating in the left lateral ventricle near the foramen of Monro without evidence of hydrocephalus. Small amount of hemorrhage along the extraaxial and intraparenchymal course of the catheter with restricted diffusion along the catheter track suggestive of devitalized tissue. Likely residual transependymal edema related to now improved hydrocephalus.
Findings consistent with meningitis and small volume subarachnoid exudate or proteinaceous material. No discrete extraaxial empyema/abscess. Patchy areas of T2/FLAIR signal hyperintensity and restricted diffusion involving the bilateral parasagittal parietal and occipital lobes, the inferior left temporooccipital region, and both cerebellar hemispheres may relate to cerebritis and/or areas of infarct.
Additional areas of restricted diffusion in the bilateral hippocampi likely relate to seizure activity. Areas of restricted diffusion in the splenium of the corpus callosum likely relate to seizure activity or infection.
