【 摘 要 】

Intracranial epidermoid cysts are very rare benign tumors representing less than 2% of intracranial tumors . They are located preferentially in the cerebellopontine angles , parasellar, and temporal regions. We report here the case of an epidermoid cyst of very uncommon medial location in the cerebellar vermis, in a 61-year-old female patient complicated with tumor protrusion into the foramen magnum and active hydrocephalus .
