Computed tomography in acute posterior fossa infarcts

Thirty-one cases of acute posterior fossa infarcts are reported. CT evidence of obliterated posterior fossa cisterns and hydrocephalus indicates a grave prognosis due to brainstem compression. Progressive obliteration of posterior fossa cisterns may be used as an indicator for surgical decompression...

description	Thirty-one cases of acute posterior fossa infarcts are reported. CT evidence of obliterated posterior fossa cisterns and hydrocephalus indicates a grave prognosis due to brainstem compression. Progressive obliteration of posterior fossa cisterns may be used as an indicator for surgical decompression. Patients with intact posterior fossa cisterns had good recoveries without surgical treatment. CT can be used to diagnose the very early phase of an acute posterior fossa infarct and has prognostic value in predicting the outcome.
