MR imaging of the brain reveals evidence of focal parenchymal lesion in the right posterior parietal region in the subcortical white matter. T1 weighted axial images shows a pin head sized nodular hypointensity with an isointense margin.FLAIR axial coronal images show signal attenuation in the lesion suggesting its cystic nature. No vasogenic oedema seen around lesion.
My 8 yr old neighbour is having this problem. Would be grateful if anyone throws light on the nature of this condition and possible treatment options.

believe it or not, it could be NOTHING!
The list of "could be"'s is as long as your arm.

a cystic lesion in the brain is generally due to an infectious process, can lead to tumor formation, treatment depends on the symptoms and what the doctor wants to do.
