title: A bilateral infratentorial neurenteric cyst.
abstract: We report a patient with a large infratentorial neurenteric (NE) cyst. Intracranial NE cysts, also known as enterogenous cysts, constitute a rare, generally benign entity of unknown aetiology. The presentation, imaging characteristics and management of the case is discussed, including illustrative peri-operative images.
