I was going to say that this is called transcranial herniation, but after a quick view on Wikipedia I found the correct term to be TRANSCALVARIAL HERNIATION.

depending on the site of herniation. transcranial is a universal term, whereas transcalvarian points to the upper half of the cranial fossa :)
