How dangerous are pineal brain cysts?

Are cysts in the brain dangerous?

  • My mother's doctor discovered cysts in the corpus callosum of here brain. Is this dangerous? is this fatal?

  • Answer:

    It really depends on the type, size and number of cyst to determine the level of danger. People live with cyst all the time and do not know they have them until their doctor's tell them. The corpus callosum is the communication center between the right and left halves of the brain. The cyst could interfere with communication between the two sides of the brain. However, people can live long lives with such interference, in fact the severing of this hemisphere is some times perscribed for people suffering from seizures. You should talk with your mom and encourage her to talk with the doctor to get a better handle on treatment options.

I saw a TV show on cable called "Eaten Alive" where people had parasites...one woman had migraines and they found cysts in her brain from tapeworm larvae. They gave her meds and all but one of them died, then they had to do surgery to cut that one out. Here is the video...not all cysts are tapeworms, though..they didn't say it was Lewy bodies, did they? That would be Parkinson's or Diffuse Lewy Body disease or similar disease..
