Dr. Mahek Raviya, Dr. Parag S. Shah, Dr. Falguni A. Chaudhari

Abstract :

This case represents an arachnoid cyst in the left anterior temporal region of a middle aged man, found incidentally, but later on presenting as a space occupying lesion leading to neuropsychiatric sequel, in absence of any active neurological symptoms. Arachnoid cysts are known to be benign and asymptomatic, but sometimes can present with neuropsychiatric complications depending on their site of location.
