Investigations revealed intraaxial brainstem lesion. During surgery, thick, pus-like fluid was evacuated and part of a wall was resected. Histology revealed that the lesion was an endodermal cyst. Both patients are well and are lesion- and symptom-free for 24 and 72 months.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>LESSONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Endodermal cysts are some of the few long-standing and benign intraaxial brainstem lesions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/case2020","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,20]],"date-time":"2021-09-20T03:05:27Z","timestamp":1632107127000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Endodermal cyst: rare intraaxial brainstem location.
