Cerebral MRI. (A) Sagittal medial section focused on the pituitary region of control (a), patient II.3 (b), and patient II.4 (c), showing an hypoplasia of anterior pituitary (ap). The pituitary stalk (s) is seen and the posterior pituitary (pp) is in normal position. (B) Coronal sections focused on pituitary region for control (a), patients II.3 (b), and patient II.4 (c) showing the anterior pituitary hypoplasia. Note the dysmorphy of the anterior pituitary (b, c). (C) Sagittal sections for patient II.3 (b) showing a Chiari type I malformation (herniated cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum showed by an arrow), and a left retrocerebellar arachnoid cyst (asterisk), (a) control MRI.
