comment
A malformed cerebellum may be abnormally small, dysplastic, or unusually large. The vermis and both hemispheres may be equally or disproportionately affected. Primary malformations of the pons, midbrain, and supratentorial structures are also seen in a substantial subset of patients. The wide range in morphological presentations results from the diversity of causes, including chromosomal abnormalities, specific genetic syndromes, and extrinsic factors.
