We describe an adult case of LCC, which has been successfully treated and followed up for many years. All LCC cases were reviewed, including recently reported cases, and our findings were compared with previous reviews. Radiographic images suggested that the gadolinium-enhanced nodule may be the origin of the enlarging cyst. If the responsible cyst is located on the eloquent area, removal of the nodule should be first performed.
