    Abstract Skull base osteomyelitis is a rare and life-threatening infection of the skull base, commonly seen in elderly diabetic patients as a result of otogenic or paranasal infection. The diagnosis is based on a series of arguments, including a high clinical suspicion, imaging findings, negative biopsies for malignancy, and microbiological isolation. Complications, including abscess formation and vascular involvement, mandate a multidisciplinary treatment approach, primarily involving broad-spectrum antibiotics and surgical debridement, but the prognosis is usually poor. Herein, we describe the case of a 55-year-old male, who 15 years prior, underwent radiation therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. He presented with an infection of the skull base with extensive bone erosion accompanied by an uncommon complication; an intra clival abscess. Despite aggressive antibiotic therapy, the patient ultimately succumbed to septic shock.

    Abstract Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), formerly known as von Recklinghausen disease is an autosomal dominant disease with multisystem involvement. In the peripheral nervous system, it leads to the development of benign tumors from the tissue of the spinal or cranial nerve sheaths, known as "neurofibromas." We report the case of a 40-year-old patient with spinal cord compression syndrome in whom spinal MRI revealed cervical, dorsal and lumbosacral neurofibromas revealing neurofibromatosis type 1.

    Abstract Septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) is a rare malformation defined by septum pellucidum abnormalities and hypoplasia of the optic nerves and chiasm. It can be associated with cortical development malformations such as schizencephaly, which is then called septo-optic dysplasia plus. It usually manifests at birth, although it may not be diagnosed until childhood, or rarely, adolescence. We report the case of a 23 years old patient, with a history of epilepsy since early childhood never labeled, which was diagnosed with SOD-PLUS with brain MRI in our department.

    Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a progressive neurodegenerative pathology. It involves both upper and lower motor neurons, leading to their degeneration. Lower motor neurons can be detected with an electromyogram, but the detection of upper motor neuron dysfunction may be more accurate using MRI. We present the case of a 64-year-old woman with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, presenting the motor band sign and the bright tongue sign on MRI.

    Abstract Eagle syndrome is defined as a collection of symptoms affecting the cervical and cranial regions, resulting from an elongated styloid process or ossified stylohyoid ligament encroaching on surrounding structures and causing a variety of symptoms. Classically, Eagle syndrome presents as neck, throat, or ear pain. Carotid artery dissection is a rare complication of Eagle syndrome. We report the case of a 40-year-old man who presented with bilateral internal carotid artery dissection secondary to pathological elongation of the styloid processes.

    Abstract Intracranial dermoid cysts are rare slow-growing cystic lesions. They are frequently extra-axial, intra-axial localization is very rare. These benign congenital ectodermal inclusions cysts have a rare risk of rupture. Ruptured dermoid cysts can manifest with headache, epilepsy seizure, cerebral infarction, meningitis, and hydrocephaly. Neuroimaging features are quite characteristic. We report a case of a 30-year-old male who presented to the emergency room with subacute-onset headaches. CT scan and MRI show a ruptured intracranial dermoid cyst.

    Abstract Susac syndrome is a rare microangiopathy of indeterminate etiology, presumably autoimmune, characterized by a triad of encephalopathy, sensorineural hearing loss, and branch retinal artery occlusions occurring predominantly in women. The onset and progression patterns are multiple, mainly of three modes. Fulminant evolution is exceptional, rarely reported across literature. We report through this case a Susac syndrome in a young man in whom evolution was fatal. Magnetic resonance imaging is essential to raise the diagnosis and for follow-up, with almost pathognomonic findings, all the more useful as the clinical triad is usually incomplete and as the encephalopathy is the most limiting of the symptoms.

    Abstract The occipital bone is an uncommon location for meningoceles protrusion. This condition occurs generally after a severe traumatism or surgical procedure. However, in some rare cases, the herniation can happen spontaneously. Nontraumatic clival meningoceles present an extremely rare entity and correspond to a herniating pachymeningeal collection containing cerebrospinal fluid through a zone of fragility in the clivus. Clinical presentation ranges from simple headache or rhinorrhea to severe complications such as recurrent bacterial meningitis or nerve compression. Computed tomography provides an analysis of the bone and magnetic resonance imaging provides a superior contrast resolution, helping to distinguish among the various types of clival lesions. We report the case of a young woman with a long history of idiopathic intracranial hypertension, who presented with a worsening headache. Magnetic resonance imaging confirmed a clival meningocele without other complications and the patient was put under medical surveillance.
