Arachnoid cysts in a brother and sister.

W G Wilson1, K A Deponte, J McIlhenny, F E Dreifuss.   

Abstract

We describe a brother and sister with microcephaly and mental retardation who were shown by cranial CT scan to have almost identical unilateral arachnoid cysts. The occurrence in sibs suggests the possibility of a genetic basis for at least some cases of arachnoid cysts.
