Epidermoid cyst of the pineal region
AUTOR(ES)
Sambasivan, M.
RESUMO
An epidermoid cyst in the pineal region is reported to underscore the feasibility of successful surgical excision of such lesions and the need to review the management of posterior third ventricular lesions. An interesting, but unexplained, feature in this patient was renal glycosuria which cleared after excision of the tumour.
