Resumen

Los quistes aracnoideos intraselares son una patología muy rara, con muy pocos casos descritos en la literatura científica. Su fisiopatología permanece todavía poco clara, con diferentes hipótesis sobre su formación. El diagnóstico diferencial con otras lesiones quísticas selares puede ser extremadamente complicado. Presentamos 2casos clínicos de 2quistes aracnoideos sintomáticos que fueron tratados quirúrgicamente mediante abordaje transesfenoidal, así como los resultados de una revisión bibliográfica.

Abstract

Intrasellar arachnoid cysts are an uncommon pathology, with only a few cases reported in scientific literature. Their physiopathology is still unknown, with different hypothesis about their development. Differential diagnosis with other cystic sellar lesions is difficult. We report two cases of two intrasellar arachnoid cysts that were treated surgically using transsphenoidal approach and present a review of the literature.
