Epidermoid cysts account for approximately 1% of all intracranial tumors. Hemorrhage into an epidermoid cyst is extremely rare, and has only been reported a few times. To our knowledge, there are no reports of a hemorrhagic epidermoid cyst presenting with a first generalized tonic clonic seizure. We
OBJECTIVE
Supratentorial epidermoid cysts located on the midline are very rare. We describe the first case of such a cyst arising from the rostral neuropore.
METHODS
We report a patient suffering from seizures and progressive frontal syndrome and presenting with a huge cyst developed in the midline
Epidermoid cysts (ECs) are rare developmental lesions occurring anywhere along the central nervous system. Usually affecting adult patients, the occurrence of supratentorial dorsal cistern ECs has been reported in only 1 certain case of pediatric age. An additional pediatric case is presented. An
Case description: A 10-year-old 7-kg (15.4-lb) neutered male Shih Tzu was referred for evaluation because of a sudden onset of dullness and intermittent vomiting of 1 to 2 weeks' duration. Two days prior to evaluation, clinical signs had
OBJECTIVE
To report challenges and complications associated with surgical intracranial epidermoid cyst removal from the fourth ventricle of a dog.
METHODS
Clinical report.
METHODS
Labrador retriever (7 years old) with focal seizures.
METHODS
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an oval lesion
OBJECTIVE
To illustrate the anesthetic management of a term parturient with a large brain tumour scheduled for Cesarean section.
METHODS
A 26-yr-old woman presented at 33 weeks gestation with a generalized grand mal seizure. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a 5-cm multi-lobulated extra axial
Intracranial epidermoid cysts are usually located in the paramedian regions with characteristic imaging features. Intracystic hemorrhage is rarely reported with most in the cerebellopontine angle area. We described a case of hemorrhagic epidermoid cyst in cerebellar vermis. The patient was a
BACKGROUND
Epidermoid tumors represent the third most common lesion of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA). Their evolution and clinical features are distinctively characteristic. We present a comprehensive review of the clinical, imaging and surgical aspects of epidermoid cysts of the CPA.
METHODS
We
OBJECTIVE
Intracranial epidermoid cysts are rare, potentially curable, benign lesions that are sometimes associated with severe postoperative complications, including hemorrhage. Delayed hemorrhage, defined as one that occurred after an initial unremarkable postoperative CT scan, contributed to most
Epidermoid cysts in the lateral temporal lobe presenting with seizures are rare accounting for <5% of all intracranial epidermoid cysts. Preoperative diagnosis can be further confounded by unusual imaging as presented in this case, thus leading to the wrong preoperative diagnosis of the case as a
A case of epileptic laughter associated with deep right temporal epidermoid cyst is reported. Interictal EEG with subdural grid electrodes demonstrated multifocal spike discharges in the right temporal lobe. Ictal EEG localized the epileptogenic foci at the base of the anterior medial temporal lobe.
Epidermoid tumours are rare intracranial tumours. They are commonly found in the cerebellopontine angle and the suprasellar region. However, they are also known to occur in other locations. Anterior interhemispheric fissure epidermoid cysts are rarer still, and calcification among epidermoids is
Epidermoid cysts are most likely to occur at the cerebellopontine angle or in the suprasellar region. Intracerebral epidermoid cysts are rare and only 18 cases have been reported in the literature. This report presents a case of epidermoid cyst which developed in the right frontal lobe. A
Epidermoid cysts in the middle fossa are rare and may involve the temporal lobe and lateral ventricle. Affected patients often suffer from seizures, but the pathomechanisms underlying the epileptogenic lesions have remained unclear. Here we report the surgical pathological features of the
Background: Epidermoid Tumors (or Epidermoid Cysts) are benign, slow-growing, congenital and rare lesions, that represent approximately 0.2-1.8% of all intracranial tumors. Intraparenchymal ECs are very rare lesions that may account for
