case_images: C-shaped incision was given overdue to a matter based over the sphenoid ridge. Cyst was identified (Figure 3) surrounding brain cortex was isolated by covering savlon soaked cotton patties, the cyst wall was separated from the surrounding brain parenchyma by hydro dissection during which the cyst wall was ruptured and contents were spilled into the surrounding tissue, the spilled contents were removed carefully and through was given using hypertonic saline and chemotherapy was applied (Figure 4).
