| Abstract | The origin of cranial epidermoid cysts (EC) remains controversial, and although generally considered to be congenital, acquired origin has been reported. EC represent 0.2 to 1.8% of all brain tumours, and only one fourth are intradiploic in location. We report of a 44-year-old woman with a giant intradiploic EC of the occipital bone with intracranial extension confirmed on brain MRI. Three years previously, in the same location, she underwent resection of an intradermal melanocytic naevus of the skin under local anaesthesia with lidocaine infiltration of skin and periosteum. Brain CT scan performed at the time of naevus surgery because of associated headache did not show a lesion of the cranial vault. Iatrogenic epidermoid tumours are extremely rare, and although seeding of epidermal cells has been classically described only after lumbar puncture, the same mechanism may be involved after head injury, cranial surgery or cranial periosteal iatrogenic puncture. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
