A rare case of pediatric colloid cysts in bilateral ventricles.

Colloid cysts often arise in the third ventricle. It is quite rare for colloid cysts to arise from lateral ventricles. We describe a case of a patient with colloid cysts in the bilateral ventricles. The patient eventually underwent a surgical operation to alleviate the symptoms. Colloid cysts have the potential to be misdiagnosed in the clinical practice; therefore, magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy would be effective for differential diagnosis.
