- Pineal_gland_cyst abstract "A pineal gland cyst is a usually benign (non-malignant) cyst in the pineal gland, a small endocrine gland in the brain. Historically, these fluid-filled bodies appeared on 1-4% of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scans, but were more frequent at death, seen in 21-41% of autopsies. A 2007 study by Pua et al. found a frequency of 23% in brain scans (with a mean diameter of 4.3 mm).Smaller cysts (less than 5.0 mm) are usually asymptomatic, but for larger cysts (greater than 5.0 mm), symptoms could include headache, unexpected seizures, visual disturbances, memory loss, cognitive decline, muscle fasciculations, nausea, weakness, fatigue, light sensitivity, tinnitus, circadian rhythm dysfunction, or hydrocephalus if the cyst impinged on the superior colliculi or caused obstruction of the cerebral aqueduct. In some cases, it will need to be removed before life-threatening situations occur. Despite the pineal gland being in the center of the brain, due to recent advancements in endoscopic medicine, endoscopic brain surgery to drain and/or remove the cyst can be done with the patient spending 1-3 nights in the hospital, and being fully recovered in weeks, rather than a year, as is the case with open-skull brain surgery.The National Organization for Rare Disorders states that pineal cysts larger than 5.0 mm are \"rare findings\" and are possibly symptomatic. If narrowing of the cerebral aqueduct occurs, many neurological symptoms may exist, including headaches, vertigo, nausea, muscle fasciculations, eye sensitivity, and ataxia. Continued monitoring of the cyst might be recommended to monitor its growth, and surgery may be necessary.In a small population of people with larger, symptomatic cysts, the following comorbid conditions have been noted: Pseudotumor cerebri (elevated intracranial pressure), empy sella, hormonal disturbances, flattened optic discs, chiari malformation, sjogren's, POTS, dysautonomia, PCOS.".
