A case of neurenteric cyst at CP Angle discussed. Only few intracranial neurenteric cyst have been reported. Around 60 cases were reported. Most of the intracranial lesions were in the posterior fossa. Around twenty cases of Neurenteric cysts in the CP angle were reported. The present case is a neurenteric cyst in the CP angle belongs to Odom’s group A lined by single layer of columnar cell wit...

We describe a seminal case report of a child with a tethered cord syndrome secondary to the unusual constellation of a split cord malformation, lumbar myelomeningocele, and coexisting neurenteric cyst. A 17-year-old adolescent girl with a several-month history of myelopathy and urinary incontinence was examined whose spinal MRI scan demonstrated a type II split cord malformation with a large bo...

Neurenteric cyst in the thoracic cavity may produce a myriad of clinical features. We report a 7-month-old girl who presented with significant bleeding per rectum. On imaging, a mediastinal cystic structure with air-fluid levels was evident with cervico-thoracic vertebral anomalies. The cyst was excised and histopathology showed intestinal mucosal lining with heterotopic pancreatic tissue confi...

Immunohistochemical characterization of 14 cases of intracranial cysts was performed. Among these 14 cases, five different types of cysts were represented; Rathke's cleft cyst (4 cases), neurenteric cyst (2 cases), colloid cyst (1 case), choroidal epithelial cyst (2 cases) and arachnoid cyst (5 cases). Immunohistochemical evaluation utilized antibodies to glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP),...

The neurenteric cyst is a rare developmental lesion arising as a result of persistence of the neurenteric canal. It usually presents in the second and third decade. Lesions occurring in children are rare. Majority of the cases presented with signs of spinal cord involvement. This is a rare case of neurenteric cyst in an infant who presented with a presacral mass. A nine-month-old female had an ...

BACKGROUND Neurenteric cysts are congenital cysts of the central nervous system that are believed to be of endodermal origin. In this report we present the unique case of a supratentorial neurenteric cyst that is contained entirely within the brain parenchyma. METHODS A patient presented with an intraparenchymal cystic lesion that was subsequently identified as a neurenteric cyst. This lesion...

BACKGROUND Intracranial neurenteric cysts are rare cystic masses of endodermal origin lined with mucin producing low columnar or cuboidal epithelium. Approximately 141 cases have been reported so far. Most of the posterior fossa neurenteric cysts are typically small, located anteriorly to the brainstem in the midline or in the cerebellopontine angle cistern area. CASE REPORT We present a rare...

Spinal neurenteric cysts are uncommon congenital lesions, furthermore solitary neurenteric cysts of the upper cervical spine are very rare. A 15-year-old boy having an intraspinal neurenteric cyst located at cervical spine presented with symptoms of neck pain and both shoulders pain for 2 months. Cervical spine magnetic resonance (MR) imaging demonstrated an intradural extramedullary cystic mas...

background: foregut duplication cysts associated with vertebral anomalies are referred to as neurenteric cyst. about 30 cases have been reported in the literature so far. posterior mediastinal neurenteric cysts are very rare and a few studies could be found in the literature even after extensive search. because of rarity we are prompted to present 7 cases of posterior mediastinal neurenteric cy...

Neurenteric cysts are CNS lesions most frequently occurring in the spinal cord. Intracranial neurenteric cysts are rarer, typically presenting with headache, mass effect, or location-specific symptoms. The area postrema is known as the emetic center of the brain; lesions can cause nausea and vomiting. Our case, featuring a neurenteric cyst of the area postrema, illustrates the importance of con...
