Pineal region meningioma without dural attachment

A A Madawi et al. Br J Neurosurg. 1996 Jun.

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.
