Cerebellar mutism after surgery for posterior fossa tumours in children is a well-described, though rare, entity. Most of these tumours are located in the region of the cerebellar vermis extending to the hemispheres. The authors report a case of cerebellar mutism in an 8-year-old boy who underwent surgical evacuation of a spontaneous vermian haematoma. We feel that his mutism was an extreme form of cerebellar dysarthria.
儿童后颅窝肿瘤手术后出现的小脑缄默症是一种虽已被充分描述但却罕见的病症。这些肿瘤大多位于小脑蚓部区域并延伸至半球。作者报告了一例8岁男孩的小脑缄默症病例,该男孩接受了自发性蚓部血肿的手术清除。我们认为他的缄默症是小脑构音障碍的一种极端形式。
