Radiation-induced meningioma after treatment for pituitary adenoma: case report and literature review

M D Partington et al. Neurosurgery. 1990 Feb.

Abstract

Radiation-induced meningiomas are becoming increasingly well-recognized. We report a case of a 35-year-old man who developed a suprasellar meningioma 9 years after receiving a radiation dose of 4480 cGy for a pituitary adenoma. The literature is also reviewed.
