Microcystic meningioma. A case report.
Microcystic meningioma is a distinct morphological variant of meningioma, characterized by loose texture and microcysts with formation of large extracellular spaces containing edematous fluid. The tumor cells have stellate and vacuolated cytoplasm with long cytoplasmic processes. We experienced a case of typical microcystic meningioma occurring in the falx cerebri adjacent to the left superior ...

متن کاملA Case of Intraosseous Microcystic Meningioma Without a Mass Lesion
Both intraosseous and microcystic meningiomas are rare tumor types. We report the case of a 66-year-old woman with intraosseous microcystic meningioma without a mass lesion. She presented with a rare intraosseous microcystic meningioma manifesting as pain. Radiological examination revealed an osteolytic lesion in the right parietal bone. Magnetic resonance (MR) images showed iso- to hypointensi...
متن کاملFine Needle Aspiration Cytology versus Fine Needle Capillary Sampling in Cytological Diagnosis of Thyroid Lesions
Background and Objectives: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is an established out- patient procedure used in primary diagnosis of palpable thyroid lesions. A modified technique fine needle capillary sampling (FNCS) obviates the need of suction, is less painful, patient friendly and reported to overcome the problem of inadequate and bloody specimens. The aim of our study was to compare the...
متن کاملRare Morphological Variant of Meningioma: A Case Report of Microcystic Meningioma
A rare morphological variant of meningioma, known as microcystic meningioma, was originally described as “humid” or vacuolated meningioma. It is difficult to distinguish this clinical entity through computed tomographic scans or magnetic resonance images, as they appear similar to glial or metastatic tumor with cystic or necrotic areas. Their similar imaging characteristics make it difficult to...
