This has been previously extensively described in adult patients as a result of various etiologies. We intend to elaborate on pediatric causes of hypertrophic olivary degeneration including infarction, neoplastic, demyelinating and infective pathologies as the underlying disorder with a few representative cases where available. A detailed explanation of underlying neuronal disruption responsible for this unique imaging finding will also be presented including diagrammatic illustration. Read More
