Abstract The authors describe a case of a giant intradiploic epidermoid cyst of the occipital bone with an intracranial extension in the posterior fossa and no signs of neurological involvement. The lesion started as a painless lump under the scalp. Roentgenographic and computed tomographic findings led to a correct diagnosis, and the complete removal of the cyst was accomplished, despite its large size. The total removal of these cysts is associated with a good prognosis.

Congenital Tumours

Epidermoid cysts are rare, benign congenital tumours of ectodermal origin which typically present between the third to fifth decade. These tumours comprise approximately 0.2-1.8% of all intracranial tumours. Though these pearly tumours are potentially curable, subtotal resection may lead to catastrophic complications such as recurrence, granulomatous meningitis and carcinomatous degeneration of cyst wall. We herein report the case of a 36-year-old man who presented with an unusual mixed density posterior fossa epidermoid cyst on imaging studies. Total removal not only cures both tumour and seizure attack in this case but also preserves patient’s neurological function.

Background: The orbital region can be occupied by various lesions including both neoplastic or non-neoplastic. Schwannomas of the supraorbital nerve are very rare tumors. Case Report: A case of a 15 years-old female patient with a one year history of progressive proptosis and no visual symptoms is presented with. This patient underwent a combined surgery with total removal of the tumor. Discussion: Intraorbital schwannomas are usually associated with neurofibromatosis and different structures can originate these tumours, including peripheral and cranial nerves. The signs and symptoms usually follow a chronic process. Surgical treatment is necessary, with various reported surgical approaches. Conclusion: We report, to the best of our knowledge, the eleventh case of schwannoma of the supraorbital nerve, describing the main features of this pathology.

Benign osteoblastoma is an uncommon bone tumor accounting for approximately 1% of all bone tumors. There are only 35 cases of skull osteoblastoma reported in the literature. We describe the case of a 23 year old male with a giant osteoblastoma of temporal bone submitted to a total removal of the tumor after an effective embolization of all external carotid branches. The authors discuss diagnostic and management aspects of this uncommon skull tumor.

ABSTRACT A case of neurinoma affecting the intracranial part of the hypoglossal nerve is reported. Symptoms and signs, radiological findings, and operative results of other cases are reviewed. The value of computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in local diagnosis and the feasibility of a one-stage operation for total removal of tumors with extracranial extension are discussed.

AbstractAt the age of 4 months, an infant was presented to us with a nodular subcutaneous tumor on the right thumb measuring 2cm, already seen prenatally via ultrasound. An MRI in sedation performed at the age of 4.5 months had no diagnostic specificity. By a biopsy at the age of 5 months malignancy could be excluded. Finally at the age of 16 months the tumor which had meanwhile grown to a monstrous size (5 cm of diameter) could be entirely removed by microsurgical technique maintaining the integrity of all intrinsic structures. The diagnosis of myxoid lipoblastoma was confirmed. According to literature, Lipoblastomas often present as connatal rapid growing soft tissue tumors and are benign. Total removal is essential for avoiding a local recurrence.

A young male patient of 22 years was presented with the complaints of low back pain, hypoesthesia and inability to walk. MRI of lumbosacral spine reveals intradural mass lesion extending from L2-L3 with no enhancement of gadolinium. Hence an extensive laminectomy and total removal of the mass was done. Peroperative impression confirms arachnoid cyst. After operation there was dramatic improvement of signs and symptoms; patient was able to walk without support during discharge from the hospital after one week. Mediscope 2021;8(2): 128-130
