There is a small well-defined right frontal lesion of parasagittal location, displacing the adjacent cortical gray matter, indicating most likely its extra-axial location. It shows a low signal on T1WI, high signal on T2WI, and heterogeneous low signal on FLAIR with restricted diffusion on DWI/ADC. No enhancement or surrounding edema seen.
Case Discussion
MRI features suggestive of an epidermoid cyst. The occurrence at the frontal region is rare.
