  • Title: Imaging in neurenteric cysts of the posterior cranial fossa.
    Author: Chaynes P, Thorn-Kany M, Sol JC, Arrué P, Lagarrigue J, Manelfe C.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1998 Jun; 40(6):374-6. PubMed ID: 9689625.
    Abstract:
    Neurenteric cysts are cystic masses lined by a columnar epithelium of endodermal origin. They are rare in the central nervous system. We report two neurenteric cysts in the posterior cranial fossa and describe their neuroradiological features. The lesions were of low density on CT and more accurately delineated on MRI. They gave the same signal as cerebrospinal fluid on all sequences. There was no contrast enhancement.
