These lesions involved the supra- and the infratentorial compartments, with the largest lesion in the left cerebellar hemisphere (Figure 1A). The operative field is more extensive than that achieved with other approaches; it extends from the cerebellar hemisphere to the extradural ventral upper cervical spine, and it provides access to tissue outside the spinal canal, such as the ventral strap muscles. [1] If there is damage to only one cerebellar hemisphere, the resultant symptoms will manifest on the side of the body ipsilateral to the lesion. |
