Jeong, Lee, Khang, Shin, Choi, and Suh: MRI Findings of Intracranial Neurenteric Cyst: Cast Report

Abstract

Neurenteric cyst is very rare congenital disease and usually presents symptoms in adulthood. It can cause major neurological deficits if detection and treatment are delayed. It is also known to be a source of serious infection of the central nervous system. Neurenteric cyst is usually located in the ventral aspect of the lower cervical or upper thoracic spinal cord. Intracranial neurenteric cyst is very uncommon and less than 35 cases have been reported in the literature. We report MRI findings of two cases of intracranial neurenteric cyst and review the literature.
