The white cerebellum sign with good prognosis: A case report.

The white cerebellum sign is a radiologic sign rarely described resulting from diffuse cerebral edema, reported especially in children with hypoxic brain lesions, it is usually associated with poor prognosis leading to irreversible brain damage. We report the case of a child who presented this sign after a severe head injury and differently from most of previous cases, our patient has recovered very successfully. The white cerebellum sign is a radiologic sign that is not frequently described, which when present carries a poor prognosis, one third of the patients die and the others have severe deficits, its identification is necessary for a better patient management.
