Ossified Occipital Pseudomeningocele following Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Malfunction.

Ossification of pseudomeningocele is a rare occurrence and is one of the rare complications of ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt malfunction. We report a case of 12-year-old boy who came with features of raised intracranial pressure following shunt malfunction which was placed as a treatment to the aqueductal stenosis. Computed tomography showed ventriculomegaly and hypodense collection in the occiput with posterior rim of calcification.

Adult intramedullary epidermoid cyst without spinal dysraphism: A case report.

Background: Intramedullary epidermoid cyst (IEC), typically associated with spinal dysraphism, is rare, with fewer than 80 such cases reported in the literature. Here we present an adult with an IEC without spinal dysraphism.

Case Description: A 41-year-old female presented with the gradual onset of a progressive spastic paraparesis attributed to a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-documented D8-9 intramedullary lesion.
