Résumé
Calcifying pseudoneoplasm of the neuraxis (CAPNON) is indeed a rare central nervous system lesion that can occur in central nervous system (CNS). Due to its infrequency and limited literature reports, it is challenging to diagnose and manage CAPNON. In this intriguing study, we embarked on a quest to uncover the story of a 16-year-old girl who experienced bothersome headaches. Through advanced imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we glimpsed a delicate calcified growth within the lateral ventricles' posterior horn. Motivated by our unwavering commitment to solving mysteries, we embarked on a surgical journey that not only freed the young patient from her ailment but also shed light on the true nature of her puzzling adversary-a remarkable CAPNON. For patients with CAPNON who have multiple or non-respectable lesions, the primary goal is to alleviate symptoms. After alleviating the symptoms with partial resection, close monitoring of any residual lesions is essential. If there is no evidence for disease progression, a strategy of continued close observation is appropriate.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Calcifying pseudoneoplasm of the neuraxis (CAPNON) is indeed a rare central nervous system lesion that can occur in central nervous system (CNS). Due to its infrequency and limited literature reports, it is challenging to diagnose and manage CAPNON.
CASE PRESENTATION
METHODS
In this intriguing study, we embarked on a quest to uncover the story of a 16-year-old girl who experienced bothersome headaches. Through advanced imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we glimpsed a delicate calcified growth within the lateral ventricles' posterior horn. Motivated by our unwavering commitment to solving mysteries, we embarked on a surgical journey that not only freed the young patient from her ailment but also shed light on the true nature of her puzzling adversary-a remarkable CAPNON.
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
For patients with CAPNON who have multiple or non-respectable lesions, the primary goal is to alleviate symptoms. After alleviating the symptoms with partial resection, close monitoring of any residual lesions is essential. If there is no evidence for disease progression, a strategy of continued close observation is appropriate.
