    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 1993; 7(5):565-9. PubMed ID: 8267896.
    Abstract:
    Intracranial epidermoid cysts are uncommon benign tumors of developmental origin; malignant transformation is extremely rare. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma arising in a chiasmatic-parasellar epidermoid cyst. Malignant change had not been suspected until histological examination revealed it.
