Abstract

We presented this case of death finding it of interest both for the rarity of the cerebral anomaly detected and for the survival of the man until adulthood in the absence of severe symptoms despite being a carrier of porencephalic cyst. In fact, the first diagnosis occurred only post mortem and the histopathological analysis confirmed the porencephalic nature of the large cerebral cavitated defect.
