Suggest Treatment For Benign Cystic Lesion In Brain
Hi, my mom is having 2.4 x 1.8 cm benign cystic lesion in her brain. MRI report shows a well defined lesion cystic space occupying lesion in the pons with internal debris as described. The features are most likely to represent at benign cystic lesion, possibility of a neurenteric cyst need consideration. The FLAIR hyperintense signal and internal debris is suggestive of proteinaceous contents/internal haemorrhage. Please advice for the above mentioned problem as soon as possible. Treament is going on with the consultation of Neurosurgeon doctor from last 5 months but how much time it will take no idea. Please reply on YYYY@YYYY
In my opinion, this cyst since it is considered benign may be followed up clinically and with periodic MRI-s. Anyway, if it has caused significant symptoms, removal should be considered. Stereotactic surgery is a good option in such cases. Discuss with the Neurosurgeon for these issues.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
