Multicystic meningioangiomatosis
BACKGROUND Meningioangiomatosis (MA) is a rare hamartomatous lesion. Only six cases of cystic MA have been reported in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of multicystic MA. A 21-year-old woman without any stigmata of neurofibromatosis type 2 presented with intractable seizures since 10 years. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-defined, multicystic mass with hete...
متن کاملMeningioangiomatosis--a case report.
Meningioangiomatosis is a rare benign hamartomatous lesion. We describe a case of meningioangiomatosis in an 18-year-old boy with a 15 year history of seizures. Computed tomography reveals an irregular calcification density along the right temporal gyrus. Microscopically, irregularly branched blood vessels, surrounded by a concentric arrangement of proliferating spindle cells, are extending int...
متن کاملMeningioangiomatosis Without Neurofibromatosis Type 2
Meningioangiomatosis (MA) is a rare, benign hamartomatous lesion found in cerebral cortex and leptomeninges. It occurs mostly in 5 - 15 year old children in form isolated or diffuse; the diffuse form may be associated with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2). The sporadic type in the adults is less common.The patient was a 37 year-old man with a long history of frontal headache. In suspected sinusit...
متن کاملMeningioangiomatosis: clinical-radiological features and surgical outcome.
Meningioangiomatosis (MA) is a rare, benign neoplastic disorder involving the cortex and leptomeninges, the sporadic form, commonly presents as refractory localization-related epilepsy, but could be asymptomatic especially in older patients. The imaging features may be entirely non-specific. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) erroneously suggests meningioma, lowgrade tumour or vascular malformati...
متن کاملMultifocal meningioangiomatosis: a report of two cases.
We report the CT and MR findings in two patients with multifocal meningioangiomatosis, neither of whom had a family history or stigmata of neurofibromatosis. All lesions were located in the cortical and subcortical areas and had round dense calcifications with eccentric cysts. The masses were associated with surrounding edema and gliosis.
