Abstract

A case report of a Sylvian fissure meningioma in a 4-year-old female is presented. Childhood meningiomas are discussed, and the literature is reviewed with respect to the location of the lesion in the Sylvian fissure. The role of radiotherapy following subtotal resection of meningiomas is also described.
