Epidermoid cysts are uncommon, benign and slow-growing lesions. They often reach an enormous size without producing neurologic symptoms. We describe a 35-year-old female who had a giant intradiploic epidermoid cyst of the occipital bone. She underwent posterior cranial fossa tumor resection. Pathology confirmed epidermoid cyst. There was no recurrence at 13-month follow-up. Total removal of these cysts and repeated washing of the cavity with 0.9% saline may prevent recurrence and aseptic meningitis.
表皮样囊肿是罕见的良性、生长缓慢的病变。它们常常长得很大却不产生神经症状。我们描述了一位35岁女性,她患有枕骨巨大板障内表皮样囊肿。她接受了后颅窝肿瘤切除术。病理证实为表皮样囊肿。13个月的随访中无复发。完整切除这些囊肿并用0.9%生理盐水反复冲洗腔隙可预防复发和无菌性脑膜炎。
