    A rare case of brain endometriosis presenting as a cystic lesion caused focal headaches and seizures in a young woman. Surgical excision confirmed the diagnosis, highlighting this unusual cause of neurological symptoms.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Intracranial endometriosis is a rare condition, typically presenting as a dural lesion.
    • Endometriosis involves endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, which can occur ectopically in the brain.

    Observation:

    • A 20-year-old woman experienced 3 years of focal headaches and a generalized seizure.
    • Neuroimaging revealed a cystic, ring-enhancing lesion in the right parietal lobe.

    Findings:

    • Surgical excision of the lesion revealed a chocolate-colored cyst.
    • Histological examination confirmed the presence of endometriosis within the brain parenchyma.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering ectopic endometriosis in the differential diagnosis of intracranial cystic lesions.
