Terson’s syndrome after endoscopic removal of a colloid cyst

Abstract

An extremely rare complication of endoscopic colloid cyst removal is presented. Terson’s syndrome related to endoscopic resection of a colloid cyst has been reported only twice before in the literature and it could be explained by intracranial hypertension related to rinsing during the procedure. The case is described and the complications in the neuroendoscopic removal of colloid cyst are reviewed from the literature.
