Posterior fossa arachnoid cyst causing torticollis and gastro-oesophageal reflux in an infant.
Child's Nervous System : ChNS : Official Journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery 2018 December
INTRODUCTION: Arachnoid cysts (ACs) account for a small proportion of all intracranial lesions. They are often incidental but can become symptomatic and even cause a threat to life. Symptoms are usually due to direct compression of neural elements and/or raised intracranial pressure.
CASE REPORT: We report the case of an infant with an enlarging posterior fossa arachnoid cyst (PFAC) causing torticollis and gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR), the combination of which had been previously unreported in this context. Endoscopic fenestration and cyst decompression were followed by complete resolution of the symptoms. We discuss the possible mechanisms of torticollis and GOR in this context.
