About this Condition

Pineal cysts are fluid-filled spaces within the pineal gland.

The pineal gland sits nearly in the center of your brain, and is responsible for hormones related to sleep-wake cycle.

Pineal cysts are common, occurring in about 1-5% of the population.

These cysts are benign, which means not malignant or cancerous.
