Abstract
In the present series, we were able to identify 7% of tonsillar cysts among 60 patients with CM. MRI with Flair and Diffusion sequences should be pre-operatively used for evaluation of tissue characteristics as differential diagnosis of cystic lesion and gliosis. The clinical presentation endorses surgical indication, with a good chance of clinical improvement. This was the first time that the frequency of tonsillar cysts has been evaluated in a series of adult patients.
