Abstract
- Intradiploic cyst, non-neoplastic process simulating neoplasm, is rare in skull. The pathogenesis of this lesion remains obscure. But, results of the hemorrhage into the diploic space after trauma in newborn and young children may attribute as one of the major cause to form a intradiploic cyst. A case of intradiploic cyst in a 7 months-old male, which involved right parietal vertex, is presented with reviews of the literatures. Diagnosis was made with the plain skull X-rays, Brain CT, surgical and pathological findings.
