Article Synopsis
- Intracranial epidermoid cysts (ECs) are uncommon, non-cancerous growths usually located in specific areas of the brain, and they typically develop from leftover ectodermal cells from embryology.
- Although these cysts are present from birth, symptoms usually appear in middle age due to pressure effects on surrounding brain tissue.
- The case presented involves a 69-year-old man with an EC that unexpectedly ruptured and impacted brain tissue, highlighting a rare occurrence and contributing new insights to the understanding of these cysts.
