Cysts of the Cavum Septum Pellucidum (CSP) though uncommon, can be treacherous. We present the case of an adult male with a Neuro Cysticercal Cyst (NCC) within the CSP which was retrieved endoscopically with a novel technique using an angiographic catheter. This specific location for NCC has never been reported in the literature and together with its unique endoscopic management makes it worth reporting.
