Congenital supratentorial arachnoid cysts are large lesions that tend to cause severe distortion and compression of the brain, particularly in infants and children. Diagnosis of such cysts has often been delayed and uncertain in the past, but development of computerized tomography (CT) has greatly improved the ease and accuracy of their identification, helping to provide for earlier surgical treatment and better care of patients. The authors report 24 cases of congenital supratentorial arachnoid cysts, 18 of which were studied with CT scanning; this method proved very valuable in pre- and postoperative assessment in all cases, and far superior to other diagnostic methods.
先天性幕上蛛网膜囊肿是一种较大的病变，往往会导致大脑严重变形和受压，尤其是在婴幼儿中。过去，此类囊肿的诊断常常延迟且不明确，但计算机断层扫描（CT）的发展极大地提高了其识别的便利性和准确性，有助于更早地进行手术治疗并为患者提供更好的护理。作者报告了24例先天性幕上蛛网膜囊肿病例，其中18例进行了CT扫描；该方法在所有病例的术前和术后评估中都被证明非常有价值，远优于其他诊断方法。
