We here present a case ofspontaneous rupture of an intra-axial dermoid cyst in an adult patient that presented withheadache and was diagnosed on the basis of dramatic appearance of intraventricular andcisternal fat droplets along with parenchymal fat containing lesion on CT and MRI.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Dermoid cysts are rare intra-cranial tumors commonly located in the subarachnoid spaces.Intra-axial dermoid cysts are even rarer.
📊
Key Findings & Data:Intracranial dermoid cysts are generally slow- growing and benign; symptoms result from the mass effect of these cysts.

Abstract

Dermoid cysts are rare intra-cranial tumors commonly located in the subarachnoid spaces.Intra-axial dermoid cysts are even rarer. Intracranial dermoid cysts are generally slow- growing and benign; symptoms result from the mass effect of these cysts. Rupture ofintracranial dermoid with spillage of its contents into subarachnoid space and//or ventriclescan lead to chemical meningitis, hydrocephalus, seizures, cerebral ischemia and infarction.Very rarely rupture may not be associated with any symptoms. We here present a case ofspontaneous rupture of an intra-axial dermoid cyst in an adult patient that presented withheadache and was diagnosed on the basis of dramatic appearance of intraventricular andcisternal fat droplets along with parenchymal fat containing lesion on CT and MRI.

Özet

Dermoid kistler ender görülen ve sıklıkla subaraknoid aralıklarda yerleşen intrakraniyaltümörlerdir. İntra-aksiyel dermoid kistler daha da enderdir. İntrakraniyal dermoid kistlergenellikle yavaş büyüyen selim huylu ve semptomları bu kistlerin kitle etkisi ile olmaktadır.İntrakranial dermoidin rüptüre olması, içeriğinin ventrikül ve/veya subaraknoid mesafeyeaçılması kimyasal meninjite, hidrosefaliye, nöbetlere, serebral iskemiye ve infarkta nedenolabilir. Çok ender olarak da rüptür herhangi bir semptoma neden olmayabilir. Bu makaledebaşağrısı ile gelen erişkin bir hastada BT ve MRG tetkiklerinde parankim dışındaintraventriküler ve sisternal yağ damlacıklarının görülmesi ile tanısı konan rüptüre olan birintra-aksiyel dermoid kist olgusu sunulmaktadır.
