Intradiploic epidermoid cyst with intracranial hypertension syndrome: Report of two cases and literature review.

摘要: Abstract Introduction Intradiploic epidermoid intracranial cysts (IEIC) derive from ectodermal cells and are covered with stratified squamous epithelium. They extremely rare, most common locations in the occipital, frontal parietal bones. have a very slow growth can be asymptomatic until becoming evident by deformation produced. The treatment is based on removal of lesion, subsequent histopathological confirmation. Presentation case Two cases reported, hypertension syndrome, which uncommon because this type pathology; however, decompensations occurring space-occupying lesions at level explain clinical presentation. Discussion presentation intradiploic asymptomatically, made prominence soft tissues then presenting less frequently local pain cephalea; rarely size lesion cause focal neurological signs. Conclusion These benign lesions, although they low incidence, seen above all, significant size, may produce mass effect patients, was initially tolerated its growth, become decompensate syndrome.
