Figure 1

Radiological presentation of an arachnoid cyst (AC). Computed tomography (CT) scan of a large, left-sided temporal AC. Note the splitting of the Sylvian fissure and the compression of the frontal and temporal lobes, all classical features of a Galassi type 3 cyst [10]. The midline is displaced 6 mm to the right. Note the enlargement of the left cranial vault suggesting that the AC was present before the neurocranium was fully developed.
