Giant Tumefactive Perivascular Spaces
AJNR 26:298-305, Salzman, K.L., et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Giant tumefactive PVSs most often appear as clusters of variably sized cysts that are isointense relative to CSF and do not enhance. They are most common in the mesencephalothalamic region and may cause hydrocephalus. Although they may have striking mass effect, giant PVSs should not be mistaken for neoplasm or other diseases.
