Cranial vault unicameral bone cyst.

Introduction: Unicameral bone cysts (UBC), also known as simple bone cysts, are common benign bone lesions filled with fluid, primarily occurring in children and adolescents. Although they can develop in any bone, UBCs usually affect the long bones.Materials & Methods: A 53 year old male patient was found incidentally to have a calvarian lesion in the parietal region overlying the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) (Figure 1). The differential diagnosis included a large arachnoid granulation, haemangioma of bone, a giant cell tumour or tuberculous infection. The patient was planned for elective surgery to remove the lesion and establish the diagnosis. Surgery was uneventful.Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge we describe the first case of UBC affecting the cranial vault. The patient underwent surgery.

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension caused by cervical CSF fistulae mimicking subarachnoid haemorrhage - a case report.

We describe an unusual and rarely documented site of SIH supported by clear radiological evidence: a case of spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fistulae involving the C7 and C8 nerve root sheaths, presenting with sudden onset headache and requiring surgical intervention to seal the leaks. Investigations confirmed the leaks and the typical MRI findings of meningeal enhancement, which were resolved after surgery.
