Abstract:
A case of epidermoid cyst of the lateral ventricles is reported. The patient presented with a weakness of the left lower limb and neuropsychological disorders. The diagnosis was assessed by CT scan and MRI, and confirmed at the operation. The lesion has been largely removed through a transcallosal approach though incompletely. However the long term follow-up was uneventful. Twenty-nine cases of the literature have been reviewed.
