Intradiploic epidermoid cysts, fairly uncommon lesions in neurosurgical practice, are, as a rule, benign and slow-growing. Some attain great size, producing major neurological signs. Correct radiological assessment and complete removal of the tumour and its capsule are essential for adequate surgical treatment and good long-term prognosis. We report ten cases of intradiploic epidermoid cysts of the skull, three of which were giant lesions and one malignant, and analyze the clinicopathological and radiological features and treatment of these lesions in the light of the most important published data.
板障内表皮样囊肿在神经外科实践中较为少见，通常为良性且生长缓慢。有些囊肿体积巨大，可产生严重的神经症状。正确的影像学评估以及完整切除肿瘤及其包膜对于充分的手术治疗和良好的长期预后至关重要。我们报告了10例颅骨板障内表皮样囊肿，其中3例为巨大病变，1例为恶性，并根据已发表的最重要数据分析了这些病变的临床病理、影像学特征及治疗情况。
