Management of Meningeal Neoplasms: Meningiomas and Hemangiopericytomas
Meningiomas are the most frequently diagnosed primary brain tumor accounting for nearly one third of all primary brain and central nervous system tumors reported in the United States. According to the 2007 World Health Organization classification scheme, Grade I meningiomas are benign, Grade II defines atypical lesions, while Grade III meningiomas are ...

Meningeal melanocytosis: a possibly useful treatment for a rare primary brain neoplasm
Meningeal melanocytosis (MM) is a rare primary leptomeningeal neoplasm of melanotic cells with a slow growing diffuse pattern [1]. It may occur as neurocutaneous melanosis associated with congenital cutaneous nevi, or as isolated MM. MM has a poor prognosis both due to melanocyte malignization and because of progressive meningeal thickening [2–4].

Cerebrospinal fluid findings in patients with hematologic neoplasms and meningeal infiltration
Neoplastic cell infiltration into the central nervous system (CNS) is a serious complication of hematological neoplasms. Cytomorphology (CM) and flow cytometry (FC) have been used to detect meningeal infiltration. The association between CSF findings with the results of CM and FC is still poorly understood.

Hypoglycorrhachia (Low Cerebrospinal-Fluid Sugar) in Diffuse Meningeal Neoplasm
IN the difficult and diagnostic problem case of poorly localized Central-nervous-system disease a low concentration or absence of sugar in the spinal fluid may indicate neoplastic infiltration of the leptomeninges. Little attention to this helpful clinical finding has been paid in the medical literature for some time.

Background Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal tumour now described at many locations, including the meninges. Intracranial SFT closely resembles meningioma clinically and radiologically, and, like meningioma, reports of meningeal SFT suggest a relatively benign behaviour after complete resection ...

Meningeal and ependymal abnormalities associated with cranial neoplasms: MR findings
Cranial MR studies of patients with histologically proven neoplasms and intracranial enhancing lesions or involvement of cranial vault were assessed for abnormalities of leptomeninges. Segmental or generalized thickening of the membranes, and intraventricular nodules were most frequently observed.
