Nasal dermoid cyst and nasal glioma with intracranial extension.
These congenital midline nasal masses are the result of a failure of normal neural crest cell embryology. The ectodermal anterior neuropore (primitive frontonasal region) forms medial to the optic recess of the sphenoid sinus in the third week of gestation, and the frontal, nasal, and ethmoid structures form in the area immediately proximal to the anterior neuropore.3 Through the eighth week of...
متن کاملTemporal dermoid cyst with a partial dermal sinus tract.
BACKGROUND Cranial dermal sinuses are rare and occur most frequently in the posterior fossa and along the midline. Likewise, supratentorial dermoid cysts are very uncommon. METHOD We report a unique case of an adult female patient with both a supratentorial dermoid cyst and an incomplete dermal sinus tract. RESULTS The patient is a 31-year-old female, who presented with a new onset complex ...
متن کاملNasal dermoid with intracranial extension.
Nasal dermoids are rare congenital anomalies, which usually present in early childhood as a midline nasal mass that requires surgical management. It is important to rule out any intracranial extension before subjecting the patient to surgery. We describe a case of nasal dermoid with intracranial extension. The embryology of the formation of the nasal dermoid, cyst and sinus, with the role of CT...
متن کاملDermoid cyst with tubular bifurcation and dermal sinus.
NASAL cysts and sinuses are rare. One finds very brief descriptions of these conditions in the textbooks, but frequent reports appear in the literature, particularly in the Otolaryngology journals. Pratt found a case reported as early as 1817, and Hamilton (1960) found reference to this condition in the London Medical Gazette in 1837. Recently, a similar case was reported by Stirk-Adams (1965) ...
متن کاملOccipital dermoid cyst associated with dermal sinus and cerebellar abscesses.
sinus is a rare entity, with fewer than 20 cases reported in the literature1. We describe the unique computed tomogram (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings of an infant presenting with cerebellar abscesses and secondary obstructive hydrocephalus resulting from an occipital dermoid cyst with a complete dermal sinus, confirmed at operation. Early neurosurgical intervention is advocat...
