Abstract:
Colloid cysts are uncommon, intracranial lesions frequently arising from the anterior aspect of the third ventricle. Rarely a cyst presents greater than 30 mm diameter as a giant colloid cyst. This case reports a patient with a giant colloid cyst occupying a cavum septum pellucidum et vergae. The clinical and operative significance of this anatomical variation is discussed and the giant colloid cyst literature reviewed.
