Arachnoid cysts of the fourth ventricle are exceedingly rare, but it is important to recognize them because they cause normal pressure hydrocephalus symptoms and cerebellar or brainstem deficit. We propose detailed neurologic and radiologic examinations of patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus symptoms to avoid unnecessary shunt.
