“…Cholesterol granuloma is a fibrogranulomatous lesion which forms in response to foreign-body giant cell reaction to cholesterol crystals [2][3][4] . It can develop in any region of the body where cholesterol crystal deposition may occur, and is a well-recognised lesion affecting the facial skeleton, skull and middle ear [5] .…”

“…[2] Kolesterol granülomu T 1 ve T 2 MR'de karakteristik olarak yüksek sinyalli (hiperintens) olan, petroz apeksin en sık görülen benign patolojik lezyonudur. [3] Mukosel, BT görüntülemede kolesterol granülomun-dan zor ayırt edilebilmesine rağmen, MR görüntü-lemelerde T 1 'de protein içeriğinin yoğunluğuna göre tipik olarak düşük (hipointens)-orta sinyal intensitesine sahip olmalarıyla kolesterol granülomlarından ayrılabilirler. [4] Kolesterol granülomunun kolesterol komponentine bağlı T1'de yüksek sinyalli görünü-müne, hemosiderine bağlı çepersel düşük sinyal çoğu zaman eşlik edebilir.…”

“…Patients with cholesterol granulomas may present with headache or symptoms related to mass effect on adjacent structures and cranial nerves, and cholesterol granulomas often may be an incidental finding on neuroimaging for other reasons. 1 Although these lesions may remain dormant for many years, they can also suddenly enlarge, with expansion and subsequent remodeling of the petrous apex. The most common explanation for expansion or enlargement of cholesterol granuloma is thought to be internal hemorrhage.…”

“…The most common explanation for expansion or enlargement of cholesterol granuloma is thought to be internal hemorrhage. 1 The ability to identify cholesterol granuloma is crucial, since in the acute setting it can simulate an enlarging aggressive lesion.…”
