After complete separation of the wall of the colloid cyst it was
radically removed. An external drain was inserted to the right
lateral ventricle and routine closure of the wound. Smooth
postoperative recovery and the patient was completely alert and
cooperative the next day with no CSF coming through the external
drain. CT-scan done the morning of 08-May-2006 showing complete
removal of the mass with air still in the lateral ventricle and the
subfrontal area. The patient showed dramatic recovery and the
medications were tapered within several days and discharged
15-May-2006. The final histologic result confirmed the presence of
colloid cyst. For theoretical references concerning colloid cysts,
