Colloid cyst and multiple meningiomata in Gorlin syndrome.

A middle-aged man presented with syncope and confusion. Neuroimaging revealed a third ventricular mass with obstructive hydrocephalus and bilateral convexity meningiomata. The masses were excised and pathology showed a colloid cyst and WHO grade 1 meningiomata respectively. Multisystem workup confirmed Gorlin syndrome. To our knowledge, this is the fourth reported case of Gorlin syndrome associated with colloid cyst, and the first case where multiple meningiomata are also present.
