“…The overall incidence of hydrocephalus in fourth ventricle epidermoids does not exceed 50% of cases and the ventricular enlargement does not always correlate with the remarkable dimensions of the cysts. 2,6,[12][13][14][15] The low incidence of preoperative chemical meningitis and communicating hydrocephalus indicates that in most cases the leakage of cyst contents is minimal with granulomatous reactions limited to pericapsular tissue and, possibly, to sites of sedimentation such as the lumbosacral subarachnoid space.…”

“…8 Epidermoid tumours are the most common fourth ventricular low density lesions and represent 5-10% of all intracranial epidermoids. 9 The location in the lateral ventricle, especially in the frontal horn, is very rare and that was the reason why authors initially did not think on it as a differential diagnosis.…”

“…Epidermoidzysten sind zwar zu 5-10% im IV.Ventrikel zu sehen [9], weisen jedoch variablere Lokalisationen und zumeist auch Abweichungen von der Mittellinie auf. So werden sie u. a. im Kleinhirn-Brücken-Winkel,an der Felsenbeinspitze, an der Vierhügelplatte sowie suprasellär und im Hirnstammgebiet gefunden [7,11,12,13,16,23,26].…”
