ABSTRACT
Abstract Intradiploic arachnoid cysts have scarcely been reported in the literature, most reported cases being secondary to trauma. Nontraumatic arachnoid cysts are quite rare and have been reported mostly in adults. Here, we report the case of a 16-year-old male presenting with a slowly growing mass in the occipital region and intermittent headaches. On the basis of the findings of X-rays, computed tomography scans, and magnetic resonance imaging scans of the head, the mass was diagnosed as a giant intradiploic arachnoid cyst.
RESUMO
Resumo Cistos aracnóideos intradiploicos foram raramente relatados na literatura, sendo a maior parte desses casos decorrente de traumas. Cistos aracnóideos não traumáticos são muito raros e têm sido relatados principalmente em adultos. Aqui, relatamos o caso de um jovem de 16 anos de idade apresentando uma massa de crescimento lento na região occipital e dores de cabeça intermitentes. Com base nos resultados de radiografia, tomografia computadorizada e ressonância magnética da cabeça, a massa foi diagnosticada como um cisto aracnóideo intradiploico gigante.
