โœฆ Synopsis


Patients with colloid cysts of the third ventricle may complain only of severe headache. The threat of sudden death makes these patients a special diagnostic problem to the emergency physician. There may be only a few intermittent and nonspecific signs and symptoms associated with this tumor. A discussion of two such cases and an abstract of similar cases drawn from the literature is included in this report.
