Intracranial Nasal Dermoid Sinus Cyst Associated with Colloid Cyst of the Third Ventricle

Abstract: A case of a 16-year-old male with both a nasal dermoid sinus cyst (NDSC) and a third ventricle colloid cyst is presented. The NDSC was excised via a single-stage combined intracranial-extracranial approach and the third ventricle colloid cyst was resected endoscopically. The pathogenetic theories of NDSC and third ventricle colloid cyst are discussed, and an embryological explanation for the simultaneous development of the two lesions in this patient is explored. This case is best classified among congenital d… Show more

“…A associação com gliomas é extremamente rara, com apenas quatro casos relatados na literatura 31,67,74 . Anormalidades congênitas de ocorrência concomitante com cistos colóides, como encefaloceles frontais 80 , agenesia de corpo caloso 22 , neurofibromatose 68 , hemangioma capilar do plexo coróide 62 , cisto dermóide de seio nasal 17 , reforçam o argumento de serem lesões originárias de malformações do desenvolvimento do sistema nervoso. SHUANGSHOTI et al 79 descreveram a ocorrência de cisto colóide associada a xantogranuloma do plexo coróide.…”

“…5 Alomari et al recently described a 7-year-old child with a sellar lesion, which on histopathological examination revealed areas of simple RCC morphology and areas of typical craniopharyngioma morphology. 1 These observations and others have led many authors to believe that these cystic lesions are the result of disordered embryogenesis, thereby supporting the ectodermal progenitor theory for these cystic lesions.…”

“…[3] These cysts are generally associated with dermal sinus tracts and other neural tube closure defects; however, dermal sinus tract may be absent in suprasellar and cerebello-pontine angle dermoids. [3,4] These lesions mainly presents with headache, local sings of mass effect, or neural compression. Spontaneous rupture and chemical meningitis, hydrocephalus are rare presentations.…”
