 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 8 cases of giant intracranial arachnoid cyst diagnosis and treatment of Author: Liu F, Wang Di Lei Guo Biao right [Abstract] Objective To analyze the formation of giant intracranial arachnoid cyst factors and treatment methods. Methods 1998-2008 Clinical treated eight cases of a rare cause of giant intracranial arachnoid cysts and the use of pedicled temporalis muscle packing treatment of clinical experience. Results are filling a huge intracranial arachnoid cyst cavity, using its strong absorption, so that brain tissue can be gradually expanded, after two weeks significantly reduced cyst CT Review ,6-8 months after the review cysts disappeared. Supplemented by application of anti-epileptic drugs no further epileptic seizures, only one cases of premature withdrawal seizures once, to continue medication to control symptoms. Conclusion Because of inflammation or surgical trauma caused by arachnoid adhesions and increased intracranial pressure appear late in symptoms, longer duration, a combination of late diagnosis was a rare giant intracranial arachnoid cyst formation of the major causes. There are intermittent on the history of epilepsy companion head injury, intracranial inflammation or history of brain surgery patients, cranial CT examination should be done as soon as possible, to exclude the existence of IAC or explicit IAC to avoid the formation of giant intracranial IAC. With pedicled temporalis muscle packing treatment and continue with other treatments, simple and practical, safe and reliable, results were satisfactory, indeed for the treatment of rare giant intracranial arachnoid cyst in a better way. [Keywords:] pedicled temporalis muscle packing giant intracranial arachnoid cyst Since we used between 1998-2008 pedicled temporalis muscle packing the treatment of giant intracranial arachnoid cyst (IAC) 8 cases, satisfactory results are reported as follows: A clinical data 1.1 General Information The group of 6 males and 2 f
