Hi @au99tr, welcome to Connect.
I've been reading a bit about dermoid tumors and discovered that they account for approximately 0.3% of all brain tumors. That is very rare, and hence, as you point out, there is little information out there. How was the cyst or tumor discovered? Only when it ruptured? Was it the symptom of headaches what led to your diagnosis?

I look forward to learning more about your experience as we search for others with dermoid tumor to connect with you.

I failed to mention the discovery was after a car accident where I just had a bad headache and they did a CT.
