Background: Intracranial neurenteric cysts (NCs) are extremely rare tumors that more commonly involve the posterior fossa than any other cranial part. While transcranial skull base surgery has been the mainstay of treatment, the utility of endoscopic transnasal surgery (ETS) remains to be established.
Case Description: We report a case of a large posterior fossa NC extensively involving the suprasellar region, cerebellopontine angle, and prepontine cistern, which we successfully resected with ETS through a combination of transtubercular and transclival routes.

These are amenable to gross total excision and usually carry a good functional outcome. Methods In this study, we reviewed the surgical outcomes of 35 patients who underwent excision of intradural extramedullary tumors.

We describe a premature male infant who died from complications resulting from two malformations: a large left-sided diaphragmatic hernia and a right-sided cervicothoracic neurenteric cyst. The findings of the first limited prenatal ultrasound led to the incorrect diagnosis of right-sided diaphragmatic hernia. Vertebral anomalies, commonly associated with neurenteric cysts, and an intrathoracic stomach, were not identified until autopsy examination.
