A Report of Two Cases

Dimitris P. Agamanolis, MD; Haynes B. Robinson, Jr, MD; Irwin B. Jacobs, MD; Kenneth Graulich, MD

Arch Neurol. 1978;35(6):370-376.

Abstract
• Two infants had bilateral congenital subdural cysts associated with encephaloclastic porencephaly and a CSF-subdural fistula. The cysts occupied 80% to 90% of the cranial cavity. There was severe atrophy and malformation of the underlying brain, suggesting that its development had been disturbed at an early stage of gestation. The clinical and radiologic findings were indistinguishable from those of hydranencephaly.
