The authors report their experience in the surgical treatment of intracranial dermoid and epidermoid tumors. These lesions are rare but may, in most of the occasions, be completely resected allowing a complete cure of the patient. The usefulness of the most recent diagnostic tools is discussed and the surgical indications, complications and results are reviewed in comparison to the most significant literature reports.
