1 Patient 1, a 50-year-old man presenting with a severe headache, diplopia, and the sensation of a “thick” tongue. Patient 1, a 50-year-old man presenting with a severe headache, diplopia, and the sensation of a “thick” tongue. A, Sagittal T1-weighted image (600/11/2 [TR/TE/NEX]) demonstrates abnormally low signal intensity in the inferior clivus. B, Axial T1-weighted image (600/11/2) demonstrates abnormal soft tissue isointense to muscle infiltrating submucosally within the nasopharyngeal soft tissues, extending posteriorly to abut the carotid arteries (arrowheads), and replacing the normal hyperintense fatty marrow within the lower clivus. C, Axial T2-weighted fast spin-echo image with fat saturation (4000/102/2) demonstrates mildly increased signal intensity within the infiltrated soft tissue as compared with normal muscle. In addition, there is fluid in the mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities bilaterally, presumably related to Eustachian tube dysfunction or obstruction or both. D, Contrast-enhanced axial T1-weighted spin-echo image with fat saturation (600/11/2) demonstrates moderately intense enhancement of the infiltrative soft tissue. Some areas of nonenhancement may represent areas of infarcted or necrotic muscle. E, Axial T1-weighted spin-echo image (600/11/2) from a follow-up MR examination 16 months after the initial study demonstrates normalization of clival signal intensity (white arrows), as well as considerable reduction in bulk of the previously noted abnormal pre- and paraclival soft tissue. F, Contrast-enhanced axial T1-weighted spin-echo image with fat saturation (600/11/2) from the same follow-up examination demonstrates marked reduction of enhancement, with a normal appearance to the nasopharynx and prevertebral muscles. An ill-defined area of linear enhancement just at and anterior to the hypoglossal canal on the right (arrow) is likely extending along the course of the hypoglossal nerve. Of note, this patient’s hypoglossal palsy has persisted despite resolution of all other symptoms. Patrick C. Chang et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2003;24: ©2003 by American Society of Neuroradiology
