From: Ruptured middle cranial fossa arachnoid cysts after minor trauma in adolescent boys presenting with subdural hygroma: two case reports

Fig. 1

a Axial T2WI through the temporal lobes: CSF intensity lesion in the left middle cranial fossa anterior to left temporal lobe with mass effect. There is evidence of discontinuity in the peripheral wall of the cyst (black arrow) with subdural fluid in the vicinity of the temporal lobe (white arrow). b Sagittal T2WI through the left temporal lobe: CSF intensity lesion in the left middle cranial fossa anterior to left temporal lobe with subdural fluid extending along the convexity of the left cerebral hemisphere. c Axial T2* gradient recalled echo (GRE) sequence through the frontal lobes: the subdural fluid shows no blooming artifact to suggest hemorrhage, hence confirming the collection is CSF intensity (hygroma)
