Pineal cysts are being described with increasing frequency since the advent of magnetic resonance imaging. Although pineal cysts are incidental findings in as many as 4% of magnetic resonance imaging studies, symptomatic pineal cysts are quite rare. We present a case of pineal cyst causing aqueductal obstruction with symptomatic hydrocephalus and resultant headache and syncope, which was treated by surgical resection. A review of the relevant literature and discussion follow.
自从磁共振成像技术出现以来，松果体囊肿的报道越来越多。尽管在多达4%的磁共振成像检查中，松果体囊肿是偶然发现的，但有症状的松果体囊肿却相当罕见。我们报告一例松果体囊肿导致导水管阻塞，出现症状性脑积水并伴有头痛和晕厥，通过手术切除进行了治疗。随后对相关文献进行综述并展开讨论。
