Pineal region meningioma without dural attachment
Abstract
A pineal region meningioma without dural attachment is rare. We present a case and review 12 cases reported in the literature. The preoperative diagnosis is difficult, but a vertebral angiogram if correlated to the MRI and clinical picture may give a clue. The infratentorial supracerebellar approach is suitable for this type of tumour.
