Spontaneous resolution of a colloid cyst of the third ventricle.
We report a case of an asymptomatic colloid cyst of the third ventricle in a 35-year-old male, which on follow-up MRI at 15 months appears to have spontaneously resolved. To our knowledge, this is the first such case reported and supports the role of conservative management of small asymptomatic colloid cysts.
