Despite their rarity, they have higher intervention rates than other types, yet optimal management remains unclear. Understanding their prevalence, pathophysiology, clinical characteristics, natural history, management strategies, and outcomes is critical for enhancing research on evidence-based management strategies aimed to improve patient care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Eligibility criteria:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review will include clinical studies and review articles investigating patients with Galassi III arachnoid cysts.

A comprehensive search will be conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science Core Collection databases using a structured electronic search strategy developed in collaboration with a research librarian. Gray literature will be incorporated by searching clinical trial registries for studies involving patients with Galassi III arachnoid cysts. No publication date restrictions will be applied. The selection process will involve 3 steps, and relevant data from included studies will be extracted using a standardized form. Quantitative and qualitative methods will be employed to synthesize the data. Results will be presented in graphic, tabular, and narrative formats.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Review
