Arachnoid cysts (ACs) are more commonly seen intracranially rather than intraspinally, with most being asymptomatic. This case report presents a rare association between symptomatic AC and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). In a 71-year-old man who exhibited long-standing bilateral shoulder pain and severe left brachialgia despite an unremarkable physical examination. Radiologic investigations revealed a left C5-6 cervical arachnoid cyst, and during treatment, the patient was diagnosed with IIH. Surgical excision of the cyst failed, so the patient was treated with a lumbar puncture (LP) shunt that required several revisions. During these revisions, IIH was diagnosed, leading to the insertion of a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt, which improved the symptoms. Early diagnosis of IIH through lumbar puncture in cases of spinal arachnoid cysts allows for earlier treatment with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion via a VP shunt, reducing repeated hospital admissions and surgical interventions.

Moyamoya disease is an idiopathic chronic and progressive vaso-occlusive disease ofthe bilateral intracranial branches of the internal carotid artery. Growth hormone failure, thyroid dysfunction, and low cortisol hormones are consequences of hypopituitarism. A 14-year-old girl with short stature presented with right-sided weakness associated with dysarthria. Ahormonal assay test showed abnormality ofthe anterior pituitary hormones. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and pituitary gland showed a reduction in the size of the adenohypophysis. A cerebral vessel angiogram showed multiple areas of stenosis in the right internal carotid artery. Magnetic resonance angiography demonstrated stenosis at the suprasellar region of the bilateral internal carotid artery. Pituitary dysfunction associated with moyamoya disease is rare but must be considered as adifferential diagnosis for any patient with hypopituitarism. Hypothalamopituitary dysfunction as result of carotid ischemia might be associated with moyamoya disease. Such patients require close follow-up and hormonal assay tests.

Benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH) within the intracerebral region is remarkably rare. Our report details 2 cases of unusual BFH instances that exhibit no adhesion to the dura mater or cerebral falx, accompanied by a comprehensive literature review. While magnetic resonance imaging demonstrates specific characteristics for BFH, it does not readily differentiate BFH from more common brain neoplasms like gliomas and metastatic tumors. The definitive diagnosis of BFH depends primarily on histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations. Total surgical resection is considered an efficacious therapeutic approach, emphasizing the necessity for prolonged postoperative surveillance to detect any potential tumor recurrence or metastasis.
