Los quistes aracnoideos del sistema nervioso central son colecciones de líquido similar o igual al cefalorraquídeo, de naturaleza benigna, revestidas de una membrana aracnoidea y de origen congénito o secundarias a traumatismo, hemorragia o infección. Descritos por primera vez por Bright en 1931, su definición y posible fisiopatología ha sufrido repetidas modificaciones hasta nuestros días. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar un resumen de este proceso.
