Giant glioependymal cyst resembling holoprosencephaly on prenatal ultrasound: case report and review of the literature.

T J Pelkey1, J E Ferguson, J C Veille, S R Alston.   

Abstract

We report the earliest in utero presentation of a 'giant' glioependymal cyst detected on routine prenatal ultrasound at 22 weeks estimated gestational age. The clinicopathologic features of these rare lesions are reviewed as well as previous reports of glioependymal cysts detected in utero. The effects of large intracranial cysts on neurodevelopment are discussed as well as the differential diagnosis of infantile intracranial cysts and therapeutic alternatives.
