Source abstract
Neuroglial cysts are rare congenital cysts that seldom require surgical treatment. This case highlights a rare instance when a neurolglial cyst caused acute hydrocephalus in a 10-year old boy. Originally diagnosed and managed as pediatric-onset migraines, the patient presented to the emergency department with nausea, vomiting, and ataxia without clear pathology on neuroradiology. The neurosurgical team took him to the operating room based on his clinical picture and history and the cyst was discovered there. The pathology was benign, and he has had a complete resolution of symptoms.
