Brain MRI of Twin B comparing TSE T2 sagittal (A) and axial (B) images performed at 35+ 6 weeks' gestation, with the same images (C, D) performed at 50+ 6 weeks of corrected age: the lesion (dotted red arrow) increased in size causing a more relevant mass effect on the surrounding structures and an initial displacement of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum (red arrow). The lesion still appeared isointense to the surrounding parenchyma, with myelination-like aspects and thickening of the intra-lesional cortical component
