title: Recurrent intracranial neurenteric cysts.
abstract: Neurenteric cysts are cystic lesions lined by a columnar epithelium of endodermal derivation. They are rarely located in the central nervous system. We describe the case history of two recurrent neurenteric cysts located within the posterior fossa: one in the 4th ventricle and the second in the cerebellopontine angle. The literature is reviewed and the follow-up and recurrence of such cysts are discussed.
