Joubert's Syndrome-MRI
Abnormal foliation/fissures in cerebellar hemisphere with aplastic cerebellar vermis. Fourth ventricle is enlarged and deformed (batwing like configuration). Superior cerebellar peduncles are oriented parallel and deep interpeduncular fossa, in a molar tooth like fashion.
These findings are suggestive Joubert's syndrome.
Joubert anomaly, also known as molar tooth midbrain-hindbrain malformation, is an autosomal recessive disorder. It is named after the French neurologist: Marie Joubert who first described the condition.
