Abstract
|
|
|
|
Intracranial lipomas are rare lesions, which are believed to be congenital malformations. They are usually asymptomatic incidental findings and localized in the midline. However, they may occasionally produce neurological symptoms such as seizure, headache, mental changes, paresis. Currently, diagnosis of intracranial lipomas is made on based of imaging modalities, particularly Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI). Because Lipomas are strongly adherent to the surroundings and typically enclose both vessels and nerves, Surgical approach is rarely indicated.
