This study details a rare interhemispheric epithelial cyst in a 54-year-old woman, the first case reported without callosal agenesis. Surgical removal led to full recovery, suggesting a primitive neuroepithelium origin.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Pathology
  • Neurosurgery

Background:

  • Interhemispheric epithelial cysts are rare intracranial lesions.
  • They are often associated with callosal agenesis, a congenital disorder affecting the corpus callosum.

Observation:

  • A 54-year-old woman presented with a rare interhemispheric epithelial cyst.
  • This case is unique as it occurred without any signs of callosal agenesis.

Findings:

  • A partial excision of the cyst wall was performed.
  • Ultrastructural analysis indicated the cyst originated from the primitive neuroepithelium.
  • The patient recovered fully with no recurrence of the cyst.

Implications:

  • This case expands the understanding of interhemispheric epithelial cyst presentation.

  • It suggests that these cysts can occur independently of callosal agenesis.
  • Further research into the pathogenesis of these rare cysts is warranted.
