Dyke–Davidoff–Masson syndrome

We reported five cases of Dyke–Davidoff–Masson syndrome (DDMS) with different clinical and radiological findings. The evaluated parameters were the location of the lesions, midline structural shift effect, pathological and morphological changes on the ipsilateral calvarium, paranasal sinuses and mesencephalon, presence of compensatory contralateral hypertrophy. With the help of both magnetic resonance (MR) and computerized tomography (CT) images, changing degrees of all the evaluated parameters were observed in all five of our patients. In conclusion, no relationship was found between parenchymal and calvarial changes and between the time after onset of the disease and amount of the morphologic and pathological changes.
