Abstract

Cerebellar infarction is an infrequent pathology that represents only 3% of ischemic strokes with associated high morbidity and mortality. Immediate medical and surgical interventions are required for early and timely clinical management; making correct use of diagnostic images, the start of support measures that allow patient stabilization, and adequate surgical treatment to counteract the progression to catastrophic herniation.
