Methods of treating brain cysts

Cyst drainage and resection Brain cysts refer to subarachnoid cysts, which can be congenital and secondary. The former is the most common arachnoid cyst, and the latter is caused by intracranial inflammation, craniocerebral trauma, or surgery. Caused. Therefore, the treatment of brain cysts needs to be considered for two different types. For congenital brain cysts, if there is no occupying effect, that is, no headache, nausea, vomiting or compression of other brain tissues, then in this case, no treatment is necessary regardless of size and location, but regular review should be carried out, such as brain CT or MRI every six months. If compression symptoms are shown, surgical treatment can be considered, including cyst-peritoneal shunt and endoscopic-assisted cyst drainage. For secondary brain cysts, it is normal to actively treat the primary disease, not to treat brain cysts, because such brain cysts generally do not produce pressure on the brain.
