LARGE MENINGOTHELIAL MENINGIOMA IN A 27-YEAROLD PATIENT: CASE REPORT
Abstract:
We report on the case of a 27- year-old male who presented right hemiparesis and gait
disturbances. A large left parasagittal expansive process was detected on CT brain scan. Brain MRI
delineated the solid, well circumscribed fronto-parietal mass. A provisional diagnosis of meningioma
was made. Following a complete surgical resection of the tumour, a definitive diagnosis of WHO
grade 1 meningothelial meningioma was determined based on histopathological findings.
Postoperative CT brain scan confirmed that the tumour was completely resected. The patient was
discharged with no motor deficit
