摘要：

Twenty-six cases of developmental. retrocerebellar cyst (RCC) formation are studied with respect to determining the usefulness and anatomic relevance of separate terms currently in use, including Dandy-Walker complex, Dandy-Walker malformation, Dandy-Walker variant, mega-cisterna magna (MCM), and Blake's pouch cyst. An anatomic and embryological continuum between Dandy-Walker complex and Blake's pouch cyst is proposed. A method for the useful assessment of RCC is outlined. The patency or closure of the aqueduct is crucial to the evaluation and management of hydrocephalus associated with RCC formation.
