Rhombencephalosynapsis is a rare cerebellar malformation characterized by absence of the vermis and midline fusion of hemispheres. It is easily recognized by MRI. No specific syndrome has been described in association with this cerebellar anomaly. Early diagnosis is possible especially when coexisting brain anomalies are present. We report a symptomatic case of rhombencephalosynapsis with moderate hydrocephalus.
菱脑融合是一种罕见的小脑畸形，其特征为小脑蚓部缺如和半球中线融合。通过磁共振成像（MRI）很容易识别。尚未有与这种小脑异常相关的特定综合征被描述。早期诊断是可能的，尤其是当存在并存的脑异常时。我们报告一例伴有中度脑积水的有症状的菱脑融合病例。
