“…This long period of development(protracted development) makes the cerebellum vulnerable to common developmental disorders such as Dandy-Walker malformations and pontocerebellar hypoplasia (Ten Donkelaar and Lammens 2009).There are four important phases of cerebellar development namely, cerebellar territory characterization; the formation of ventricular zone and rhombic lip forming Purkinje cells, deep cerebellar nucleus and granule cells; the migration of granule layer from external to internal and lastly the cerebellar circuitry formation (ten Donkelaar et al 2003).Apart from the formation of cerebellar hemispheres, the cerebellar vermis, a small, hindbrain structure develop from the rostral segments of the rhombencephalon in early gestation (Martinez et al 2013, Millen andGleeson 2008).The cerebellum contribute to both motor and non-motor functions such as movement, proprioception, and cognition (Basson and Wingate 2013, Koziol et al 2014, Ben-Yehudah, Guediche, and Fiez 2007. Cerebellar malformations are common (Santoro et al 2019, Howley et al 2018 and have long term consequences in children (Pinchefsky et al 2019, Abel andTahir 2019),therefore frontiers in obstetric and radiological societies emphasize the important for routine screening of the cerebellum and vermis in utero (Haratz et al 2019, Quarello et al 2014. Early detection (prenatal diagnosis of the cerebellar abnormality is essential and have some prognostic impacts (Patek et al 2012, Gandolfi Colleoni et al 2012, Wuest et al 2017.Obstetric ultrasound has been a routine diagnostic tools in evaluation of fetal well-being in utero (Whitworth, Bricker, andMullan 2015, Henrichs et al 2019), however, the fetal cerebellar structures such as the vermis, being small in size and deep in skull base, the routine axial sonography may not suffice to depict the subtle changes during cerebellar development (Yang et al 2012, Pugash et al 2008.…”
