Abstract
|
|
|
|
Glioependymal cyst (GEC) is an uncommonly observed clinical entity in the posterior cranial fossa. A 36-year-old female with cystic lesion in the right cerebellum was hospitalized for evaluating headache and dizziness. Brain images showed a well-defined, ovoid mass adjacent to the fourth ventricle. After drainage and excision of the cyst, the patient became symptom free. Pathology examination disclosed low cuboidal epithelium and glial cells in the cyst wall. The radiological features, neurological manifestations, and the operations for GECs of the present localization are described in this short communication.
