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 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...
متن کاملMalignant Meningioma with Lumbar Spinal Metastasis (a case report)
Meningioma is considered as a benign central nervous system tumor that accounts for approximately 18% of all brain tumors. About 5% of meningioma tumors are malignant and have more aggressive clinical signs and worse prognosis compared to benign tumors. Extracranial metastasis of meningioma is rare but in the case of occurrence, it is more prevalent in lung, liver and lymph nodes. Osseous metas...
متن کاملCase Report Subependymoma with extensive microcystic transformation: a case report
Subependymomas are benign tumors that occur predominantly in the ventricular system. We described a case of a 44-year-old female with a large subtentorial mass which compressed the brain stem and fourth ventricle. Complete surgical excision of the tumor was achieved. The tumor composed of collections of cytologically bland cells with round to oval nuclei set within wide expanses of a delicate f...
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...
