CT findings in complications of acquired renal cystic disease.

abstract：:The typical CT findings of Lhermitte-Duclos disease (dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum) are a hypodense nonenhancing unilateral posterior fossa mass, with or without adjacent occipital thinning, hydrocephalus, and calcification. Magnetic resonance (MR) has been found to be very helpful, and superior to CT, in...
