The following year, Dyke and Davidoff (1) America independently reported a similar case. original communications were brief factual. They merely recorded findings suggested that these data might prove helpful diagnosis future encephalograms published by showed numerous bizarre globular linear collections air region island Reil, right temporal lobe, posterior parts frontal lobes. This unusual configuration was thought to be due collection between folds tumor surface. Subsequently, number isolated case reports appeared literature, describing (2, 3, 4, 6). More recently, few papers (3, 4) have been implying this picture is characteristic pathognomonic epidermoid tumors. An analys...
