BACKGROUND: @entity600 ( @entity600 ) are the most common @entity1504 of the brain. They are most commonly asymptomatic and often diagnosed incidentally. ILLUSTRATIVE CASE: We present a rare case of a 9-year-old @entity1 with @entity410 caused by a subcortically located @entity8468 posterior to the postcentral gyrus of the left brain hemisphere. MRI also showed an enlarged, microcystically altered pineal gland and an extracranial @entity2477 . EEG showed left fronto-centro-parietal spikes that corresponded with the location of the @entity8468 . The spikes were occasionally secondary generalized. The @entity1 responded well to oxcarbazepine treatment, and no surgical intervention was required. Control MRI scans showed no progression of the @entity8468 . CONCLUSION: @entity302 may be caused by @entity8468 . The treatment starts with anticonvulsants. The surgical treatment is the therapeutic choice only if @entity410 are resistant to conservative therapy because surgery might result in serious @entity63 or @entity548 complications because @entity600 are considered to be variations of normal transmedullary veins that are necessary for the drainage of white and gray matter.
