Supratentorial ependymoma presenting as a cortical cyst with a mural nodule in an adult

Supratentorial ependymoma is a rare tumour in the adult central nervous system. We present an unusual case of supratentorial ependymoma in a young adult that presented as a pure cortical cyst with a mural nodule and discuss the differential diagnosis of such lesions in the brain.
