Abstract

A unique case of suprasellar dermoid cyst and familial hypercholesterolemia in a child is reported. Such an association, which strengthens the congenital hypothesis of dermoid cysts, could be a manifestation of a complex dyslipidemic inherited syndrome, at least in children. Surgical removal of the dermoid cyst which spilled cholesterol into the cavernous and intercavernous sinuses, allowed reduction of cholesterol levels in the postoperative period
