ABSTRACT

Rathke cleft cyst is a ectodemo’s invagination, due to de third and fourth weeks of pregnancy go to the estomodeo zone and made the adenohyphofisis. Rathke cyst is rare and represent minus of the 1% of all brain tumors. This cyst are seldom symptomatic, when made symptomatic is for compression, is common the headaches, diplopia and less vision. We made present a interesting case from man a 19 years old with the symptomatic classic for a big Rathke cyst.
