C C Moran et al. J Comput Assist Tomogr. 1995 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

A patient with a known epidermoid tumor presented with a new large ring-enhancing mass adjacent to the cyst. Histopathology showed foreign body giant cell reaction adjacent to the epidermoid cyst. The CT and MR imaging appearances are described. The neuroimaging findings are identical to malignant degeneration to squamous cell carcinoma.
