To the authors' knowledge, most of intracranial arachnoid cyst located in middle cranial fossa and lateral fissure cistern. So, huge frontal-temporal lobe arachnoid cyst is rare. Symptoms of arachnoid cyst may be atypical, including headache, nausea, vomiting, epilepsy, poor memory, and so on. Of course, migraine related to weariness is a rare benign headache disorder. The authors reported a patient presenting with weariness migraine associated with large frontal-temporal lobe arachnoid cyst.

Shunt dependence syndrome is a serious long-term complication characterized by symptoms and signs of increased intracranial pressure with normal-sized lateral ventricles after several years of arachnoid cyst-peritoneal shunting. It is easy to misdiagnose and overlook when combined with sinus stenosis, thus delaying treatment. Here, we present a 35-year-old man with an unexplained headache and binocular horizontal diplopia with high intracranial pressure.

Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is a neurodevelopmental condition presenting with poor motor skill development and impaired coordination at a young age. To diagnose DCD, neurologic conditions explanatory for the phenotype, including structural brain abnormalities like hydrocephalus, must be first ruled out. However, these neurologic conditions may phenotypically mimic DCD, which can hamper their distinction.

Background/objectives: Intracranial arachnoid cysts (ACs) may be congenital, primary, or secondary due to trauma. These cysts are benign, contain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and are classified based on location, size, and their clinical symptomatology. They are uncommon lesions in children, rarely leading to severe mass-effect neurological symptomatology.

Spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery in a laboring patient with known cranial arachnoid cyst: a case report.

Int J Obstet Anesth

December 2024

Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine, Brigham & Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, United States.

Article Synopsis
  • Arachnoid cysts are generally fluid-filled and asymptomatic, requiring no surgery; however, their safety during neuraxial procedures in pregnant patients is not well-documented.
  • The case presented involves the anesthetic management of a pregnant patient with a significant arachnoid cyst affecting the cerebellum who was in labor.
  • Following a multidisciplinary approach, neuraxial labor anesthesia was deemed suitable, and the patient ultimately received spinal anesthesia for a cesarean delivery due to fetal distress.

Background: Spinal epidural arachnoid cysts (SEACs) are rare, non-neoplastic pathologies that can cause compressive myelopathy. Preoperative identification of the exact fistula location is crucial for minimally invasive management.

Methods: This single-center retrospective study included 27 patients with SEACs who underwent "double-needle puncture myelography" to precisely localize the fistula before minimally invasive surgery.
