Extracerebral anaplastic meningioma

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Conventional treatments of anaplastic meningioma include surgery and radiotherapy. Temozolomide is also an option.

description KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Conventional treatments of anaplastic meningioma include surgery and radiotherapy. Temozolomide is also an option.

ABSTRACT: Anaplastic meningioma is an unusual tumor subtype that rarely involves organs outside the brain. In our case, a patient with cerebral meningioma developed lung metastases after 19 years from the initial tumor appearance. This unpredictable behavior could make complex the diagnosis.
