Figure 1 Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. A-D: The initial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a cystic lesion within the fourth ventricle, characterized by an eccentrically positioned scolex and minimal contrast enhancement. The lesion is indicated by an orange arrow; E-H: A subsequent MRI, performed 5 weeks later, demonstrated a marked increase in the cyst size (A and E: Axial T2-weighted sequences; C and G: Sagittal T2-weighted sequences; B and F: Axial post-contrast sequences; D and H: Sagittal post-contrast sequences).
