The mean age of the patients was 20.8 years (2\u201344 years range). The most common symptoms in the patients were headache and ataxia. The mean long-axis size of lesions was found to be 48.19 \u00b1 21.59 (range, 15\u201392\u2009mm). 9 out of 16 lesions (56.2%) were located in the fourth ventricle. The majority of the lesions were iso-hypointense in T1W and hyperintense in T2W images. The mean ADC value of PAs was 1.57 \u00d7 10\u22123 \u00b1 0.2 mm2\/s, while the mean thalamic ADC and white matter ADC values were found to be 0.78 \u00d7 10-3 \u00b1 0.04 and 0.76 \u00d7 10-3 \u00b1 0.06\u2009mm2\/s, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference between the ADC values obtained from the solid components of the lesions and the thalami\/white matter (p &amp;lt; 0.001).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>PAs often originate from midline structures, however, they can also be located intraventricularly.
