文摘
Epidermoid cysts are uncommon, benign and slow-growing lesions. They often reach an enormous size without producing neurologic symptoms. We describe a 35-year-old female who had a giant intradiploic epidermoid cyst of the occipital bone. She underwent posterior cranial fossa tumor resection. Pathology confirmed epidermoid cyst. There was no recurrence at 13-month follow-up. Total removal of these cysts and repeated washing of the cavity with 0.9 % saline may prevent recurrence and aseptic meningitis.
