Psychiatric symptoms associated with frontal lobe unruptured or ruptured intracranial dermoid cysts are rarely described in the medical literature. The case of a 58-year-old man with a chronic history of anxiety, major depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder who presented with new onset auditory and visual phenomena is described. This case illustrates the need to include an underlying brain tumor in the differential diagnosis when encountering new onset auditory and visual phenomena in patients with chronic mood and/or anxiety disorders.
与额叶未破裂或破裂的颅内皮样囊肿相关的精神症状在医学文献中鲜有描述。本文描述了一名58岁男性患者的病例，该患者有焦虑、重度抑郁和强迫症的慢性病史，出现了新发的听觉和视觉现象。该病例表明，当慢性情绪和/或焦虑症患者出现新发的听觉和视觉现象时，在鉴别诊断中需要考虑潜在的脑肿瘤。
