The Association Between Arachnoid Cysts and Subdural Hygroma and Spontaneous Resolution of Subdural Higroma
Journal Title: Journal of Neurological Sciences-Turkish - Year 2005, Vol 22, Issue 4
Abstract
The association between arachnoid cyst and subdural hygroma (SH) is rare. We report a case, presenting of left middle cranial fossa arachnoid cyst with traumatic SH and spontaneous resolution of SH. The patient was totally asymtomatic prior to the injury and his arachnoid cyst was detected incidentally during investigations following minor head trauma. Our case with normal neurological examination was treated symptomatically without surgical intervention and SH was resolved spontaneously.
