Abstract
Two patients are presented with a head-bobbling tic classically associated with a suprasellar cyst. The first of these showed hypothalamic, neuroendocrinological and limbic abnormalities not previously described, although with a classic arachnoidal suprasellar cyst. The 2nd patient showed head-bobbling behavior during the first years of life as a manifestation of one of many episodes of ventricular shunt obstruction. This case is the first reported whose head bobbling was observed with an acute lesion.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
