Cerebral convexity epidermoid tumor subsequent to multiple percutaneous subdural aspirations

Abstract

✓ While occasional spinal epidermoid tumors may arise subsequent to lumbar punctures, the association of cerebral epidermoid tumors with percutaneous subdural taps has not been made. The case is reported of a 30-year-old man with a right frontal convexity epidermoid tumor beneath the coronal suture, through which, as an infant, he had had multiple percutaneous subdural taps.
