It involves lymphatic proliferation in the bones and viscera. The disease affects children and young adults. There are three forms of lymphangiomatosis: ¼ Cystic form: this form is known as “cystic hygroma,” and most commonly occurs in the neck or the axilla in children.

Note the absence of the cerebellar vermis with fusion of both cerebellar hemispheres, with the “keyhole-shaped” fourth ventricle Joubert Syndrome Signs on MRI ¼ Absence or severely hypoplastic cerebellar vermis, with fusion of both cerebellar hemispheres. ¼ The fourth ventricle has a characteristic “keyhole appearance” due to the fusion of the cerebellar peduncles and inferior colliculi (Fig. 1). Joubert syndrome (JS) is a neuronal migration disorder of the cerebellum characterized by hypoplasia or agenesis of the superior cerebellar vermis, enlargement of the fourth ventricle, and cystic lesions of the viscera.
