Neuroepithelial Cyst Presenting as Recurrent Aseptic Meningitis Neurol 41:1834-1835, Kuroda,Y.,et al, 1991 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract A 41-year-old man had three episodes of acute aseptic meningitis from the age of thirty-six.With each episode he had severe occipital headache associated with a mononuclear pleocytosis and an increase in CSF protein. He had a neuroepithelial cyst originating from the choroid plexus of the right cerebellomedullary cistern.Spontaneous ruptures of the cyst probably caused recurrent chemical meningitis.A neuroepithelial cyst must be considered in the differential diagnosis of intracranial cystic tumors presenting with aseptic meningitis.
