Post operative residual meningioma (MR).





PROTOCOL:

T2W – Sagittal & axial scans
T1W – Axial scans
FLAIR – Coronal scans
T2FFE (Gradient) – Axial scans
3D TOF MR angiography of the circle of Willis vessels and MIP reconstruction.

FINDINGS:

-Post operative follow up MR examination after removal of a retro clival meningioma revealed:
·        A residual enhancing lesion in the right side of retro clival space with measurement of about 12 mm (transverse) x 12 mm (AP) X 19 MM (height).
·      Homogeneous enhancement after contrast injection.


-Brain Parenchyma shows normal grey white matter differentiation and signal intensities.  No focal mass lesion is seen.
-Lateral and third ventricles are normal in size and position. Septum is in midline.  There is no midline shift.
-Basal cisterns, cortical sulci and gyri are normal in appearance.
-Sella is normal in appearance.
-Corpus callosum shows normal MR morphology.
-Brain stem and cerebellum show normal signal intensities. 
-Fourth ventricle is normal in size and is midline in position.

OPINION:

·        Picture is suggestive of residual volume of the previously removed meningioma for clinical correlation.
