Preoperative Radiologic Classification of Convexity Meningioma to Predict the Survival and Aggressive Meningioma Behavior
BACKGROUND A subgroup of meningioma demonstrates clinical aggressive behavior. We set out to determine if the radiological parameters can predict histopathological aggressive meningioma, and propose a classification to predict survival and aggressive meningioma behavior. METHODS A retrospective review of medical records was conducted for patients who underwent surgical resection of their conv...
متن کاملMeningeal sarcoidosis, pseudo-meningioma, and pachymeningitis of the convexity.
Two cases of meningeal sarcoidosis with unusual and misleading presentations are reported. In the first case, CT scan, angiographic, and MRI findings were indistinguishable from those of meningioma. CSF pleiocytosis may help in diagnosing sarcoid pseudo-meningioma. The second patient had transient focal deficits and pachymeningitis of the convexity. The transient deficits were probably of epile...
متن کاملConvexity En Plaque Meningioma Manifesting as Subcutaneous Mass: Case Report
A 67-year-old woman sensed a slowly growing, painless hard mass in the left parietal region. Cranial computed tomography showed focal bony erosion and homogeneous sclerotic change at the affected site. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed an enhanced subcutaneous mass and irregularly thickened dura mater. Intraoperatively, the subcutaneous tumor was found to be strongly adhered to the tempo...
متن کاملConvexity meningioma associated with depression: a case report.
INTRODUCTION Meningiomas are slow growing, extra-axial lesions, and can be neurologically silent for a long time and present only with depression. CASE OUTLINE A 65-year-old woman developed major depression and was treated with antidepressants for two years. Depression failed to respond to drug treatment and there was no improvement. Two months before admission to hospital, due to the onset o...
متن کاملRetinal detachment and convexity intracranial meningioma: an uncommon association.
CASE REPORT A 70-years-old woman presented with a one week history of progressive loss of vision in the right eye (RE) diagnosed as retinal detachment from 7 to 1 o' clock with retinal break at the 10.30 o' clock associated. Gadolinium enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain and orbits with fat suppression showed a convexity meningioma. Scleral buckling with a segmental spon...
