6 Ιουλ 2020 · The surgery for pineal cyst is reserved for patient with neurological symptoms and atypical images. Abstract. Pineal cysts are a common incidental finding on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which frequently prompts referral to neurosurgery.
Pineal cysts (PCs) are benign and often asymptomatic lesions of the pineal region that are typically small and do not change in size over time. PCs appear as small, well circumscribed, unilocular masses that either reside within or completely replace the pineal gland.
A pineal gland cyst is a usually benign (non-malignant) cyst in the pineal gland, a small endocrine gland in the brain. Historically, these fluid-filled bodies appeared on 1-4% of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scans, but were more frequently diagnosed at death, seen in 4-11% of autopsies. [1]
Pineal cyst volumes tend to remain stable over serial MR images, do not reliably correlate with symptoms, and do not typically require long-term follow-up. Keywords: Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI); Pineal cyst; Referral; Surveillance.
