Craniocervical neuroepithelial cyst (colloid cyst).
Colloid cysts represent between 0.25-1 % of intracranial tumors [1-3]. Although most frequently located in the third ventricle, they are also found throughout the ventricular system [4]. Extraventricular location is rare [5]. We describe a case of a neuroepithelial cyst located in the craniocervical region, which was examined by CT and vertebral angiography, with subsequent biochemical study of...

Colloid cysts appear most commonly in the third ventricle, their occurrence in the sellar region is uncommon. The authors report a female patient with a pituitary colloid cyst. She was diagnosed incidentally with a sellar lesion by a routine paranasal computed tomography examination performed for planning of a dental implant surgery. Radiologic examinations revealed a pituitary lesion that was ...
متن کاملA Thyroglossal Duct Cyst Causing Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Adult
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder. It usually results from the structural compromise of the upper airway. In patients with OSA, the obstruction predominantly occurs along the pharyngeal airway, and also a variety of tumors have been reported to cause such a condition. We present here the case of a thyroglossal duct cyst causing OSA in adult. This case demonstrates that thyroglo...
متن کاملOccipital Lobe Infarction due to Acute Hydrocephalus Secondary to Third Ventricle Colloid Cyst in a Child
Colloid cysts comprise 0.5 to 1% of intracranial tumors that are most commonly diagnosed in third to fifth decade of life.1,2 These benign tumors are generally seen in the anterosuperior portion of the third ventricle and are by far the most common of the intraventricular masses here.3,4 Colloid cysts are of endodermal (foregut) origin and are lined by pseudostratified, cuboidal, or columnar ep...
متن کاملLarge hemorrhagic colloid cyst in a 35-year-old male.
Colloid cysts are rare benign tumors of the third ventricle with diverse clinical presentation, which vary from incidentally found cysts to acute death. An uncommon hemorrhage in these cysts is a life threatening complication which can cause obstructive hydrocephalus with acute deterioration of the patient and sudden death. We present a case of 35-year-old man with large hemorrh...
