Abstract
Posterior fossa dermoid cysts with dermal sinuses are rare cerebral tumours. Authors recently treated a 7-month-old girl who suffered from a posterior fossa dermoid cyst with dermal sinus. In addition, cerebellar abscess in the left cerebellar hemisphere was detected by CT and MRI. Surgery was performed the day after external ventricular drainage insertion, and the dermoid cyst and cerebellar abscess were fully excised. Early detection and adequate management of these benign tumours can prevent serious complications, as argued within the discussion section.
