Quiste neuroentérico supratentorial: reporte de un caso

Abstract

The neurenteric cyst is a rare benign lesion injury, with a spinal frecuent location. Intracranial presentation is rare and even more supratentorial. We related the case of a male patient of 53 years wirh a history of headache, that the study show a cystic lesion, initially managed with observation and that 5 years later shows growth, indicating the surgical management, achieving total resection. The biopsy was consistent with a neurenteric cyst. The patient was tracked for 8 years without recurrence. this entity is discussed as part of the differential diagnosis of other supratentorial lesions and the importance of total resection that determines the good outcome.
