Abstract

A 67-year-old man exhibited long-standing left third nerve palsy. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a cystic lesion in the left cavernous sinus with signal characteristics typical of arachnoid cyst. Intradural cavernous sinus arachnoid cyst has not reported previously. Pathogenetic mechanisms are discussed.
