  • Title: Intraventricular fat from a ruptured sacral dermoid cyst: clinical, radiographic, and pathological correlation. Case report.
    Author: Scearce TA, Shaw CM, Bronstein AD, Swanson PD.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 1993 Apr; 78(4):666-8. PubMed ID: 8450343.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a unique case of a dermoid cyst that ruptured into the lumbosacral subarachnoid space following trauma, resulting in dissemination of cyst contents into the ventricles and cerebrospinal subarachnoid spaces. An intraspinous source should be considered when intraventricular fat is identified without a clear intracranial source.
