If you are a neurologist, surgeon, or radiologist can you email me?!
Question: If you are a neurologist, surgeon, or radiologist can you email me? I have old records from 1 CT scan and 2 MRI's and I have a question about what it states. It is rather a long one. I will try to explain on here in short for one of them (all three are some what similar but have one different explaination). "Findings: There is a 2x5 mm sharply circumscribed fat density within the right side of the suprasellar cistern immediately medial & below the right optict tract..."Opinion small lipoma in the suprasellar cistern..." That is one of them, the others state almost the same. 1 with just a 1.6 cm lesion (the most recent in yr 2000). 1 in '97 with just about the same. The 1 in '00 also states separately, 7 mm herniation consistant with Arnold Chiari Malformation so it states both seprately. I know the suprasellar is by the pitutary area, but is it close to where the to where the ACM would be? Could they be seeing that in the other ones instead of a tumor?

ACM is when the brain drops down into the spinal cord and causes probably the symptoms that you are having. I don't see how they can mistake one for the other.
