El quiste coloide intracraneal representa menos del 1% de todos los tumores intracraneales en el adulto, y su incidencia en la infancia es mucho menor, habiéndose presentado aproximadamente 50 casos, de los cuales sólo 14 se dan en niños de 10 años o menos.

Hacemos una revisión de los quistes coloides en la primera década de la vida. Aportamos un nuevo caso de quiste coloide infantil, que debutó con clínica de hipertensión endocraneal en una niña de 5 años. Se exponen además los hallazgos radiológicos y anatomopatológicos de forma detallada.
