  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A man, aged thirty-eight, developed the cerebellar ataxia and the bulbar palsy 15 months prior to his death which have gradually become worse, and he had a persistent tachycardia of about 120 per minute in spite of normal body temperature a month priorto his death. Finally he died of pneumonia.

The postmortem examination revealed the exis-tence of a large, children's fist-sized, tumor with a appearance similar to the teratoma at first glance, measuring 8×5×3.5 cm in size, in the ventral por-tion of the left cerebellar hemisphere, which was composed of a mass of small, round, conglomerate ones and which was covered by the calcified capsule. At close examination it was confirmed that the tumor is a congenital aneurysm derived from the left an-terior artery, the content of which consists of blood coagula ranging from fresh to old in estimated time. The aneurysm was situated at the ventral portion of the left cerebellar hemisphere, so that the left in-ferior semilunar and biventral lobules suffered severe damage. At the medulla the aneurysm produced the intense compression to the portions directing from dorsal toward ventral, resulting in the severe involvement of the nucleus dorsalis of nervus vague on both sides, the nucleus hypoglossus and the nu-cleus ambiguus especially on the left side.

In the present paper the author made some con-siderations on the relation between the pathological and clinical findings as described above.
