Meningiomas are by far the most common tumours arising from the meninges. Progressive enlargement of the tumour leads to focal or generalised seizure disorders or neurological deficits caused by compression of adjacent neural tissue. Surgery remains the primary treatment of choice, although the use of fractionated radiotherapy or stereotactic single ...

Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 2008
Meningiomas are mostly benign tumours originating from the arachnoid cap cells, represent 13-26% of all intracranial tumours. They are more common in older age and in females. Deletion in NF2 gene and exposure to ionizing radiation are established risk factors, while the role of sex hormones is yet not clarified.

Meningiomas arise in various locations. Convexity tumors are relatively simple to remove. Skull base tumors and tumors adjacent to the major cerebral veins and venous sinuses can be very difficult to extirpate. Attempts at radical resection can lead to serious morbidity.

Multiple meningiomas consisting of fibrous meningioma and anaplastic meningioma
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2003A 61-year-old woman presented with progressive dementia over a period of 4 months. Computed tomographic (CT) scans and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging showed 2 meningiomas located at the left parasagittal region and the left sphenoid ridge. These tumors had distinct MRI findings; the left parasagittal tumour showed a clear peritumoral CSF space without

Five cases of meningiomas associated with cysts are reported. In a review of the literature the authors stress the importance and difficulty of the preoperative accurate diagnosis and the differential diagnosis from other cystic tumours to avoid misdiagnosis.

Abstract This report concerns three patients with intracranial meningioma developing at the site of an old head injury with skull fracture. These cases, along with literature reports, suggest a causal relationship between head trauma and the subsequent development of meningioma.

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1990
This article reviews the surgical management of meningiomas. Variations in surgical techniques for meningiomas in specific areas are presented. The author also reviews the role of adjunctive radiation therapy, especially in the treatment of recurrent tumors.

Abstract A very unusual case of metastatic spread of a meningioma is described. The clinical presentation was of extradural spinal cord compression, without evidence of a primary tumor. Computed tomography did not reveal any intracranial meningioma; the histopathology of the extradural spinal tumor was identical with that of two ...

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2001
Meningiomas are extra-axial brain tumors of middle-to-late adult life and show a predominance in women. Overall, 90% of meningiomas are benign, 6% atypical, and 2% are malignant. Most patients diagnosed with a meningioma decide to have it removed surgically, and are advised to do so based on their neurologic symptoms.

Intracanalicular meningiomas are extremely rare and difficult to differentiate from intracanalicular vestibular schwannomas. We report an unusual case of a posterior fossa meningioma in the proximal internal auditory canal that was originally diagnosed as a vestibular schwannoma due to its appearance on magnetic resonance imaging.
