Neuroepithelial cysts are benign, congenital, ependymal-lined cysts that constitute an infrequent cause of neurological symptoms among intracranial cystic lesions. We present Indonesian patient who underwent brain MRI depicting neuroepithelial cysts and pathological examination confirmed. Surgery was performed and yielded a satisfying result. Awareness of the entity and specific imaging features is key to making the diagnosis of neuroepithelial cyst and commencing appropriate treatment. This report is expected to aid in the diagnosis of neuroepithelial cysts, which are rare, and reduce the occurrence of misdiagnosis.
神经上皮囊肿是良性先天性囊肿,内衬室管膜,在颅内囊性病变中是引起神经症状的少见原因。我们报告了一名印度尼西亚患者,其脑部MRI显示有神经上皮囊肿,病理检查予以证实。患者接受了手术,效果满意。认识该疾病及其特定影像学特征是诊断神经上皮囊肿并开始适当治疗的关键。本报告有望有助于诊断罕见的神经上皮囊肿,并减少误诊的发生。
