bone cysts/vomiting

Aneurysmal bone cysts in the skull vault are reported in two patients 7 and 9 years old, who presented with vomiting and headaches caused by raised intracranial pressure. CT showed the cystic lesion in the diploë, with predominantly inward expansion. Fluid-fluid levels were seen on both CT and MRI;

Aneurysmal bone cysts are vascular lesions that destroy and expand bone. We report a recently treated case of an aneurysmal cyst of the sphenoid bone. A 14-year-old girl presented with frontal headaches, bouts of nausea, and vomiting. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed typical

Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) of the skull is exceedingly rare. We report a unique case of an intradural ABC without bone involvement presenting with raised intracranial pressure. The patient was a 14-year-old boy who presented with headache, vomiting and right focal seizure. Imaging showed a large

Background Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign bony lesions that rarely affect the skull base. Very few cases of temporal bone ABCs have been reported. We describe the first case of a temporal bone ABC that was thought to be consistent with a meningioma based on preoperative magnetic resonance

Fibrous dysplasia of bone is a stem cell bone disease due to a somatic GNAS mutation which can affect craniofacial bones. Although craniofacial fibrous dysplasia is a benign and progressive disorder, it can cause mass effect on the cranial structures. We describe an 18-year-old man, without past

Hydatid cyst of the brain is more common in children than adults. The cyst is always solitary unless the primary site is the brain. Cerebral hydatid cyst (CHCy) is most frequently supratentorial involving the territory of the middle cerebral artery, especially the parietal lobe. This study included

We report a 9-year-old girl who presented with focal seizures, hemiparesis, headache, vomiting and bilateral optic atrophy. CT scan revealed a giant solitary cyst in the left parietal lobe. Serology and histopathology of the excised cyst confirmed the diagnosis of neurohydatidosis which is a rare

The authors present a case of intracranial hydatid cyst presented with severe headache, nausea and vomiting. Radiological investigations, including CT scan and MRI revealed a solitary cyst in the right temporal lobe, paraventricular area. Total excision of the cyst was done. The features of this
