Guest guest Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Hi everyone! Just a quick question: does anyone know if a large cyst in the brain typically contains other cysts within it? My understanding of cysts is that they usually just contain liquid, not other cysts, but I could be wrong. The cyst in question is on my 8yo son's pineal gland, and it measures 17mm. The NS we saw today said that he thinks it is a cyst, rather than a tumor, and that there is a large cyst with lots of little cysts, all inside of one big cyst. I wasn't entirely thrilled with the consult and will be looking for another NS. In the meantime, I am trying to research some of what he told me.
