The authors recently encountered a unique case of anterior third ventricular neurocysticercosis in which the cyst exhibited an unusually high signal on T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. The lesion's signal intensity and location made differentiation from colloid cyst difficult. Intraventricular neurocysticercosis should be included in the differential diagnosis of a colloid cyst.

Patients who present with signs and symptoms of endocarditis, and particularly with new neurologic symptom after RFCA should be promptly evaluated for AEF. In our case, radiographic findings in correlation with clinical history and high suspicion strongly suggested this rare, often fatal complication. During review of the chest CT, particular vigilance should be made to the left pulmonary vein/posterior left atrium junction at which site fistulous tracts tend to occur. Prompt diagnosis necessitates emergent cardiac and esophageal surgery to prevent rapid deterioration and death.

Cavernous sinus hemangiomas are relatively rare but have characteristic imaging features. We present a case of a large extra-axial middle cranial fossa mass arising from the cavernous sinus in a 51-year-old female, and we describe the unique features and complications of this intracranial tumor. With the proper pre-operative diagnosis, an appropriate plan can be created for these highly vascular lesions, minimizing the risks involved with surgery.

Paget disease of the cervical spine is a common disease in an uncommon location. The authors present an unusual case of a 58-year-old woman with a pathological fracture through the base of the odontoid vertebra secondary to Paget disease. The purpose of this case report is to describe the radiological features of Paget disease and their important application to treatment management.
