Cystic lesion

I was told after a MRI that I need more tests because they found a cystic lesion near the clivus-occipital junction. What does that mean for me? What could it be? What could it be from? I have been given no answers yet. Please help.

Dear Kiki413

It is hard for me to give you precise information on a "cystic lesion near the clivus-occipital junction". This is somebody's interpretation of your MRI. It could be a variety of things.
I can review your MRI free of charge if you would like.
