Presentamos tres pacientes afectos de epidermoides de origen diploico con invasión intracraneal que producen sintomatología neurológica por compresión de estructuras encefálicas. Se describen los hallazgos clínicos, neurorradiológicos y quirúrgicos, así como el resultado obtenido.
Creemos que en dos de los casos existió una clara relación entre el desarrollo de la lesión y traumatismo directo previo.
Al menos en la experiencia de los autores este tipo de lesiones son encontradas raramente en la práctica clínica.
We studied retrospectively three cases of intradiploic epidermoid tumors producing marked neurological deficits which resulted from intracranial growth and brain compression.
The clinical, neuroradiological and surgical findings are commented. In two cases there was a clear relationship between the appearance of the lesion and the occurrence of previous head injury.
