Post traumatic bilateral posterior fossa epidural haematomas (PFEDH) are relatively rare.
A case of bilateral symmetrical PFEDH one in the subacute and the other in the chronic phase is presented. The patient was managed conservatively. The case is discussed with the pertinent literature.
Mucoceles are chronic and benign lesions caused by accumulation and retention of mucus secretion in a sinus due to partial or complete occlusion of the oslium which causes progressive distention of the bony wall because of increased pressure. They occur most commonly in the frontal and ethmoidal sin...

In this paper, we report a traumatic atlanto-axial subluxation (odontoid peg fracture type II ) which is treated by one- stage transoral decompression and posterior fixation.
Sinus pericranii is a rare vascular lesion of the cranial vault. Abnormal diploic veins provide communication between the lesion and the intracranial venous sinus. Although sinus pericranii is well documented in the literature, we report a patient with sinus pericranii and epileptic seizures. To our...
Arachnoid cysts of the spinal canal communicating with the subarachnoid space are benign lesions and generaııy asymptomatic.
In this article we report a case of intradural arachnoid cyst presenting with hydrocephalus and paraparesis. The case is reviewed with pertinent literature.

The source of bleeding in spontaneous spinal epidural haematoma has never been clear, but has been assumed to be venous. We report the seventh case of spontaneous spinal epidural haematoma with spontaneous resolution, which was demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging.

The area of the midsagittal section of the corpus callosum, particularly in the region of the splenium was found to be greater in women than in men. The magnetic resonance imaging of seventy adults was examined and showed the same association previously observed, between sex differences and area of ...
Intracranial infections are among the complications of spinal dysraphism cases. Ventricular empyema and pyocephalus are those kinds of infections and are quite rare problems with limited reports in the literature. In this report, we present the evolution and management of a pyocephalus case and disc...

Cystic meningiomas are rare forms of meningiomas which are generally known as solid and benign tumours. Preoperative misdiagnosis of such a tumour will affect the surgical management and difficulties in histopathological diagnosis will affect the prognosis.
Flow cytometric studies have more advant...
In diagnostic neuropathology, the histological distinctions between normal choroid plexus, typical and atypical choroid plexus papilloma and choroid plexus carcinoma may cause difficulties. Immunohistochemistry was applied for proliferating cell nuclear antigen on 7 samples of normal choroid plexus,...
