Is mega cisterna magna is serious illness?
Mega cisterna magna refers to a larger than normal cisterna magna, one of the fluid filled spaces in the brain. The cisterna magna is located behind/beneath the cerebellum. This is in the lower back part of the brain. I have a mega cisterna magna, and have done a lot of reading on the subject. From what I have found in my reading and according to my neurologist, a normal variant mega cisterna magna is not a serious condition. It is usually found when a brain scan is performed for an unrelated condition. Mega cisterna magna can be a sign of a serious condition, but in most cases it is not clinically significant. It would be a good idea to have a neurologist look at the scans just to be on the safe side, and to put your mind at ease. If any other abnormalities are present, you should see a neurologist ASAP.
