It can be part of multiple congenital anomalies. We present the case and outcome of a 3-month-old clinically stable patient who has PRS with Dandy-Walker variant – which is a rare presentation in the literature – with a large right hemispheric brain abscess, treated with multiple minimally-invasive surgical drainage procedures with adjuvant antibiotics. |
