Intracranial epidermoid cyst Case report
Main Article Content
Abstract
Intracranial epidermoid cysts are estimated to constitute 0.2 to 1.8% of brain tumours (4) and they can be divided into four categories describing their anatomic origin and frequent primary location: retrosellar-cerebellopontine angle, parasellar-sylvian fissure, suprasellar-chiasmatic and basilar-posterior fossa. We describe an unusual case of prepontine epidermid cyst arising in the temporal lobe and in interpenducolar cistern: development and surgical treatment are discussed.
