Abstract

A patient with an ependymal cyst of the quadrigeminal plate is reported. The patient presented with headache, diplopia, and evidence of increased intracranial pressure. A nonenhancing cyst with hydrocephalus was demonstrated by computed tomographic scan. The cyst was subtotally resected using a transtentorial approach. The causes, clinical presentation, and treatment of quadrigeminal plate ependymal cysts are discussed, together with a review of the literature.
