Abstract
The giant dilation of the Virchow-Robin perivascular spaces in temporal location is rare. We report a case of a 17-year-old patient who presented an isolated convulsive seizure. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed and noted a right temporal subcortical lesion of fluid signal on all the sequences, not enhanced after injection of gadolinium, measuring 15.5x10.5mm. Magnetic resonance imaging is an important imaging modality for the diagnosis of giant dilation of Virchow-Robin perivascular spaces when it notes a lesion with liquid signal on all sequences in neighborhood brain vascular topography.
