A 34-year-old man presented with a 2-year history of medically refractory Holmes tremor in the right upper limb. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large, nonenhancing, multiseptate cystic lesion of cerebrospinal fluid intensity in the left thalamopeduncular region causing brainstem compression and hydrocephalus. A diagnosis of giant tumefactive perivascular spaces was made after a biopsy ruled out an infectious or neoplastic etiology.
