  • Title: CT scan and metrizamide CT cisternography in arachnoid cysts of the middle cranial fossa: classification and pathophysiological aspects.
    Author: Galassi E, Tognetti F, Gaist G, Fagioli L, Frank F, Frank G.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1982 May; 17(5):363-9. PubMed ID: 7089853.
    Abstract:
    Thirty-one cases of arachnoid cysts of the middle cranial fossa were investigated by CT scan, 7 of them undergoing additional metrizamide CT cisternography. In this paper we analyze and correlate the different findings from these two examinations and propose a classification of arachnoid cysts of the middle cranial fossa into three basic types. Pathophysiological and surgical implications are discussed.
