ABSTRACT
This report presents a case of fourth ventricle neurenteric cyst (NE cyst) mimicking hemangioblastoma, which developed in a 50-year-old woman. A tiny enhancing mural portion of the fourth ventricle in MRI suggested that the cyst was hemangioblastoma, but pathological evidence showed that the cyst was in fact NE cyst in the fourth ventricle. In order to make proper decision on to what extent of surgical resection should be done, considering every possibility in differential diagnosis might be helpful. This case reports an unusual pathology in 4th ventricle, considering the patient's age, and demonstrates that a rarer disease may share radiological features of a common disease.
