OBJECTIVE We report a case of a well-differentiated papillary adenocarcinoma arising in an supratentorial enterogenous cyst. The clinicopathological features of this case and a brief review of the literature are presented. METHODS A 45-year-old woman presented with abrupt onset of sensory seizures and abnormal sensation on the left side of her face, left leg, and left arm. Radiological studies showed a cystic extraaxial tumor with mass effect in the right parietal area. The initial clinical impression was a metastatic lesion, and a comprehensive metastatic workup revealed no evidence of tumor elsewhere. METHODS A gross total resection of the solid cystic tumor was achieved by a frontoparietal craniotomy. Sixteen months after the initial surgery, the patient presented with signs of increased intracranial pressure and a large parietal cyst. The cyst was fenestrated at the time of the second craniotomy. CONCLUSIONS A pathological study of the initial surgical material revealed it to be a well-differentiated papillary adenocarcinoma in association with an enterogenous cyst. The second surgical specimen consisted only of the benign cyst wall. The patient recovered uneventfully from the second surgery and was free of symptoms 6 months postoperatively. The importance of recognizing the rare possibility of malignant progression of a benign enterogenous cyst in the central nervous system is discussed.

D001932	Brain Neoplasms	Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.

D004828	Epilepsies, Partial	Conditions characterized by recurrent paroxysmal neuronal discharges which arise from a focal region of the brain. Partial seizures are divided into simple and complex, depending on whether consciousness is unaltered (simple partial seizure) or disturbed (complex partial seizure). Both types may feature a wide variety of motor, sensory, and autonomic symptoms. Partial seizures may be classified by associated clinical features or anatomic location of the seizure focus. A secondary generalized seizure refers to a partial seizure that spreads to involve the brain diffusely.
