Lhermitte Duclos vermis

This is a unique case of Lhermitte-Duclos disease arising within the cerebellar vermis. The characteristic feature of an enlarged cerebellar hemisphere is absent on CT scans; thus MR imaging is needed to confirm the diagnosis Lhermitte-Duclos disease is rare tumour of the cerebellum. It is also called as dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma. It is hamartomatous lesion on histology. It is considered as a WHO grade I tumour [1]. Symptoms of the tumour is mostly due to compression over the 4th ventricle or brain stem. The tumour is mostly presented in a younger age group [2]

• Lhermitte-Duclos disease, also called dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum, is a rare, slowly growing tumor of the cerebellum, a gangliocytoma sometimes considered to be a hamartoma, characterized by diffuse hypertrophy of the granular layer of the cerebellum. It is often associated with Cowden syndrome. It was described by Jacques Jean Lhermitte and P. Duclos in 1920
• ent with more hyperintense signal changes. Post contrast there was no contrast enhancement. Depending on these findings, possibility of Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD) was considered and patient was asked to come for follow-up after 1 month
• A magnetic resonance (MR) image showed a mass lesion originating from the cerebellar vermis with an atypical folial pattern and contrast enhancement. Histologically, the subtotally resected specimen consisted mostly of neuropil with nodular foci of ganglion cells. Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD) was diagnosed in the patient
• A large heterogenous relatively non-enhancing lesion is seen involving left cerebellar hemisphere, vermis, as well as cerebellar peduncles. The lesion has a striated cystic appearance

• Moreover, the striated appearance was typical of dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma, or Lhermitte-Duclos disease, and made this an Aunt Minnie diagnosis. The progressive nature of the symptoms helped us differentiate dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma from true dysplasia of the cerebellum
• Dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum (DGC), also called Lhermitte-Duclos disease, is a rare lesion of the posterior fossa consisting of a diffuse hypertrophy of the cerebellar cortex. It has been unclear whether it should be considered as a neoplasm or a malformation since it demonstrates combined features of hamartoma and neoplasia [ 1 ]
• The tumor apparently developed as an exophytic, hypertrophic sprout of the inferior vermis. It had a monstrous appearance resembling a crab, with a metameric body and multiple pairs of limbs attached to the folia of both cerebellar hemispheres. Histologically, the lesion was formed by poorly differentiated neuroepithelial cells without any evidence.

It is considered a hamartomatous tumor of the cerebellar cortex. The lesion arises in the cerebellar hemispheres and rarely extends into the vermis. LDD is often asymptomatic in early life but usually becomes clinically apparent in the third and fourth decades. 1 Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated striated and laminar pattern lesions in the right cerebellar hemisphere and vermis. She underwent subtotal removal of the vermis compressing the brainstem, but the cerebellar hemisphere appeared normal and was preserved. Histological findings were consistent with Lherimitte-Duclos disease Lhermitte-Duclos disease (dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma) is probably hamartomatous. It is typically presented in young adults. It is associated with other conditions including disorders of cortical formation, megalencephaly, grey matter heterotopia, polymicrogyria, polydactyly, hydromyelia, macroglossia, and localized gigantism

Neuroimaging plays a key role in the diagnostic work-up of morphological abnormalities of the cerebellum. Diagnostic criteria for numerous morphological anomalies of the cerebellum are based on neuroimaging findings. Various morphological patterns have been described on neuroimaging including cerebellar hypoplasia, cerebellar agenesis, pontocerebellar hypoplasia, cerebellar dysplasia.
