Surgical management of a giant hepatic metastasis from a cranial meningioma 10 years after resection

Meningiomas are the most common type of primary brain tumor; they have a low risk for extracranial metastases, which are primarily associated with increased tumor grade. Hepatic metastases from cranial meningiomas are extremely rare, with only a paucity of cases reported in the literature and no sta...

description Meningiomas are the most common type of primary brain tumor; they have a low risk for extracranial metastases, which are primarily associated with increased tumor grade. Hepatic metastases from cranial meningiomas are extremely rare, with only a paucity of cases reported in the literature and no standardized approach to management. Herein, we report a case of an incidentally discovered giant (>20 cm) metastatic meningioma to the liver treated with surgical resection 10 years following resection of a low-grade cranial meningioma. This report also highlights the use of (68Ga) DOTATATE PET/CT as the diagnostic imaging modality of choice when evaluating for meningioma metastases. To our knowledge, this report describes the largest hepatic metastasis from a cranial meningioma to undergo surgical resection in the literature.
