Аннотация
PURPOSE: The study aimed to summarize all published cases of intrinsic brainstem epidermoid cysts in a timeline to highlight the specific characteristics and individualize the disease, in addition to discussing the best treatment used.
METHODS: The scientific literature on pediatric cases of intrinsic epidermoid cysts of the brainstem was analyzed. We present the case of a 1.5-year-old male with incidental presentation, who was treated with gross total resection. We summarize all previously published cases to individualize the disease.
RESULTS: We identified 21 patients, including 10 boys and 11 girls, with a mean age of 4.85 (1-15) years at the time of surgery. The most frequent symptoms were cranial nerve palsy (71.4%), pyramidal tract deficit (57.14%), and headache (52.38%). Among the affected cranial nerves, VII was the most frequently reported in 10 patients.
CONCLUSION: Brainstem epidermoid cysts are extremely rare pathologies with relevant age involvement in young children. The treatment objective should be the maximum resection of the lesion through a careful approach and with the appropriate tools for the functional preservation of the patient.
