Hello doctor,
I have a temporal arachnoid cyst, can I have surgery? And I want to ask what is the success rate and if there are any complications after surgery. I thank you. I am 20 years old this year.

Answered by Master, Doctor Phan Duy - Department of General Surgery, Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question "Can the surgery be performed if the temporal arachnoid cyst has protruding the eye? , the doctor answered as follows:
Temporal arachnoid cyst lesions usually do not show bulging eyes, so in your case, you need to see a doctor to determine the cause of the protrusion. In addition, with arachnoid cyst lesions, clinical presentation and imaging studies should be evaluated to determine treatment.
If you still have questions about whether the right temporal arachnoid cyst can be operated on, you can go to a medical facility of Vinmec Health System for early examination and treatment. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
