Background We report a rare case of arachnoid cyst incorporating choroid plexus. This 7-month-old girl presented with macrocrania. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging disclosed a cystic lesion arising from the left prepontine cistern extending to the left middle cranial fossa.Methods First, we performed resection of the membrane microscopically and obtained an adequate reduction of the cystic size. However, 4 months after the first operation, the cyst was enlarged again, and bulging of the portion of the craniotomy was noted. Thus, we performed neuroendoscopic transcortical ventriculo-cyst-cysternostomy and confirmed the choroid plexus inside of the arachnoid cyst.Discussion Postoperative course was uneventful. This is the first reported case of choroid plexus within an arachnoid cyst, determined neuroendoscopically. 相似文献

Growing skull fracture (GSF) is a rare complication of head trauma. A posttraumatic intraventricular arachnoid cyst (AC), neither isolated nor accompanied by a GSF has not been reported previously. A seven-year-old girl was admitted after a severe head injury with a separated right parieto-occipital fracture and contusion. She responded well to conservative therapy. Seven weeks after discharge, she was re-admitted with a large parieto-occipital pseudomeningoencephalocele due to herniation of cerebrospinal fluid and neural tissue to the subgaleal space through the widened fracture defect, an extra-axial cyst at the posterior interhemispheric space and an intraventricular cystic mass. She underwent open surgery, and the intraventricular cystic mass was totally removed. The histological findings were consistent with an AC. One week after dural repair, hydrocephalus developed, and a ventriculo-peritoneal shunt was inserted. She did well during two-year follow-up. The present case is unique as an intraventricular AC following head trauma. When an intraventricular cystic lesion is encountered after severe head trauma, the possibility of an AC should be considered; especially with neighboring contused neural tissue and leptomeningeal cyst formation. 相似文献

A cyst of the choroid plexus of the left lateral ventricle with intermittent blockage of the foramen of Monro and initially
with invagination of the III ventricle in a child is described. In a 6-week-old boy a ventriculoatrial shunt was implanted
for correction of an active asymmetrical hydrocephalus of unknown origin. When he was 3 months of age a water-soluble contrast
CT ventriculography revealed a noncolloid cyst localised predominantly in the upper portion of the III ventricle. At that
time the ventricular catheter obstructed with choroid plexus was removed; new bilateral catheters in a parieto-occipital region
were implanted. In the course of the next 4 years, first the atrial catheter had to be extracted and then the peritoneal catheter
was changed, in both cases because of obstruction. Periods of normal life alternated with periods of transient and intermittent
symptoms of increased intracranial pressure, papilloedema, and myoclonic jerks. Repeated computed tomography (CT) and magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) showed stabilised hydrocephalus with an enlarged left lateral ventricle. When the boy was 16 years
old MRI revealed a choroid plexus cyst in the left lateral ventricle 2 cm in diameter, with a ball-valve type of obstruction
of the foramen of Monro. CT stereoendoscopic resection of the wall of a large cyst filled with cerebrospinal fluid was performed,
and two additional adnexal small cysts were coagulated using the bipolar coagulator, Diomed 25 laser and scissors; the symptoms
then regressed, except for superior bilateral altitudinal anopsia. Light and electron microscopy of the cyst wall is reported.
The cyst was composed of collagenic connective tissue lined with a basal lamina lacking in epithelial cells. The preoperative
and postoperative MRI are presented. Choroid plexus cysts localised in the anterior part of lateral ventricles are very rare,
and all reported cases have been in male patients. According to the literature our case is only the third ever described in
a child.

A case of intraventricular arachnoid cyst 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

A rare case of arachnoid cyst in the trigone of a lateral ventricle is reported. The patient was an 8-year-old boy who had had four episodes of convulsions prior to admission. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a cystic lesion containing fluid resembling cerebrospinal fluid. Although he received a cyst-peritoneal shunt, the lesion did not decrease in size. Direct removal of the cyst was then scheduled. The entirc cyst was finally removed, although it was firmly attached to the choroid plexus. The enlarged trigone gradually decreased in postoperative CT. The effectiveness of a cyst-peritoneal shunt is not always satisfactory. We recommend total resection of the cyst without use of a shunt system. 相似文献

To investigate immunological environment in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) system, ultrastructural and three-dimensional localization of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was studied in the choroid plexus, arachnoid membrane and dural sinus of LPS-stimulated rats with immuno-SEM and TEM. The choroid plexus epithelial cells expressed rich ICAM-1 along the microvilli. The arachnoid trabeculae fibroblast-like cells demonstrated ICAM-1 expression on both sides facing the subarachnoid space moderately. The dural sinus endothelial cells, however, showed only few ICAM-1 expression and no specific localization. These results suggest that the choroid plexus and arachnoid membrane may play an important mutual role for leukocyte migration in the CSF system, and that the CSF system may function in immunoreaction independently of the vascular system with the aid of up-regulated ICAM-1 expression. 相似文献

Background
Intraventricular meningiomas account for 0.5–3% of all intracranial meningiomas. The majority occur in the atrium of the lateral ventricle. Surgical experience with intraventricular meningiomas is rare in the literature, and several surgical approaches exist.Methods
Between 1987 and 2007, 13 patients underwent resection of intraventricular meningiomas. All patients had tumors of the lateral ventricles. These patients were retrospectively identified and their records reviewed.Results
Eleven tumors were found in the atrium, one in the frontal horn, and one in the body of the lateral ventricle. In 9 of 13 cases, the tumor occurred in the left lateral ventricle. Patients commonly presented with headache and cognitive difficulties. A visual field deficit was noted preoperatively in one patient. Four patients underwent preoperative angiography, but no patients underwent embolization. Gross total resection was achieved in all cases: 6 via a middle temporal gyrus approach, 5 via a superior parietal lobule approach, and 2 via a transcallosal approach. Image-guided stereotaxis was used in 6 cases. Pathology was benign in 12 of 13 cases; atypical features were identified in one case. There was no operative mortality, and no patients showed evidence of recurrence. Postoperatively, 3 patients developed new cognitive-linguistic deficits that subsequently resolved. One of these patients developed a new visual field deficit after surgery.Conclusions
Several approaches are available for the surgical treatment of intraventricular meningiomas. Tumor location, extension, and laterality drive the selection algorithm for these approaches. Preoperative angiography is rarely useful, and surgical cure is the rule. 相似文献7.

Background Arachnoid cysts are a relatively common incidental finding on CT scans of the brain. They most commonly occur in the middle cranial fossa, where familial occurrence has rarely been reported. Posterior fossa arachnoid cysts are more unusual.Case histories We report the presence of quadrigeminal cistern arachnoid cysts in siblings. 相似文献

Slit ventricle syndrome, known to occur from malfunction of the shunt procedure for hydrocephalus, is reported after cyst-peritoneal shunt for temporal arachnoid cyst. Two children aged 12 and 10 years, who underwent cyst-peritoneal shunting for a large temporal arachnoid cyst at the age of 10 and 5 years, respectively, recently experienced several episodes of severe headache. Prior to admission, repeated CT scans did not reveal any morphological change in either of these two patients. Evidence of high intracranial pressure by lumbar tap revealed shunt malfunction. Both patients became free of neurological complaints and deficits after shunt revision. Despite elevated intracranial pressure due to shunt malfunction, neuroimaging studies showed no morphological changes in slit ventricle syndrome. Delay in both the diagnosis and prompt treatment may result in complete loss of visual acuity and even death. It is important to suspect this complication in patients with persistent elevated intracranial pressure symptoms and signs after any shunting procedure, regardless of unchanged neuroimaging studies. Once this is suspected, lumbar tap may be necessary and the choice of treatment is shunt revision. 相似文献

The progression of congenital arachnoid cysts has seldom been documented. We report the case of a child who was diagnosed
with arrested hydrocephalus at the age of 13 months. Neuroimaging studies performed when the girl was 22 months old showed
the appearance of an arachnoid cyst in the right middle fossa, while the previously enlarged ventricles seemed to have decreased
in size. To the best of our knowledge, the paradoxical expansion of an arachnoid pouch following a reduction in the size of
the ventricular system has not previously been documented. We advance the hypothesis that the development of some cases of
arachnoid cyst might be pathogenically related to impaired CSF dynamics associated with pre-existing hydrocephalus. We also
briefly review the pertinent literature on the formation and evolution of congenital cerebral arachnoid cysts.

We report three patients with arachnoid cysts treated by cyst-peritoneal shunting in whom intracranial hypertension occurred during episodes of shunt malfunction. In one case this was associated with re-expansion of the arachnoid cyst, whilst in the other two cases this did not occur. The similarities between these two cases and patients with pseudotumor cerebri suggest a common pathogenic mechanism — specifically, a disturbance of the cerebrospinal fluid circulation. 相似文献

Magnetic resonance (MR) findings in one case each of extradural and intradural arachnoid cyst are described. Thoracic segments were involved in both cases. The cysts were slightly more intense than cerebrospinal fluid in both cases on T1 weighted images. The nature and extent of the lesions wer better demonstrated on MR images as compared with combined myelography and computed tomography. 相似文献

Arachnoid cysts of the quadrigeminal cistern are rare. Patients with this lesion are usually normal at birth, and signs of increased intracranial pressure (IICP) develop at about 4 to 12 months of age. However, there has been no report about this mechanism. A case of arachnoid cyst of the quadrigeminal cistern is presented. In this case, the process of the cyst growth was observed during the course of follow-up for shunted hydrocephalus. Symptoms coincided with the growth of the cyst. Therefore, the development of the clinical symptoms was thought to be due to IICP caused by cyst expansion. Our case was complicated by inflammation, something that may offer a key to solving the mechanism of cyst fluid accumulation and the relationship between symptoms and development of the cyst. 相似文献

Objective The role of the cerebellum in the pathogenesis of seizures remains controversial. Cerebellar origin of seizures, albeit rare,
has been described in the literature in association with intrinsic lesions of the cerebellum. We present a unique case of
a patient with medically intractable, secondary generalized epilepsy, associated with a superior cerebellar quadrigeminal
arachnoid cyst.
Clinical presentation A 9-year-old child presented with medically refractory secondary generalized epilepsy associated with recurrent headaches
since 6 months of age. The child also had moderate intellectual impairment and autism. On the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
of the head, he was noticed to have a small superior cerebellar arachnoid cyst in the quadrigeminal area that had increased
in size slightly. Interictal electroencephalograph (EEG) was unable to localize the site of the epilepsy. Neurological examination
was unremarkable.
Intervention A suboccipital craniotomy and supracerebellar infratentorial approach to the cyst was performed at 9 years of age. Intraoperative
electrocorticography (ECOG) demonstrated epileptic activity from the cerebellar tissue adjacent to the cyst. The cyst was
fenestrated, and the cyst wall was sent for histology. Seizure control improved dramatically after fenestration of the cyst.
Conclusion This case provides strong evidence that, albeit rare, the cerebellum may be a source of epileptic activity due to compression
by a lesion in the posterior fossa. Hence, in cases with intractable epilepsy of unknown supratentorial source, the differential
diagnosis should include a posterior fossa lesion. The finding of a posterior fossa lesion in such cases, even if it is small
and appears benign, should precipitate a discussion about the possible relationship between the posterior fossa lesion and
the epilepsy. 相似文献
