Abstract

A 47-year-old man underwent surgery for syncytial meningioma. Twelve months later neuroimaging demonstrated recurrence, showing an intra-axial ring-enhanced cystic lesion in the site of previous surgery. High-grade glioma was suspected. Neuropathologist's diagnosis was ''intraparenchymal rhabdoid meningioma''. The case raises questions about behaviour of meningiomas and their differential diagnosis with gliomas.

Abstract

Midbrain multiloculated cystic formations can rarely origin by enlargement of Virchow-Robin spaces surrounding mesencephalo-thalamic artery and branches of the collicular and accessory collicular arteries. They can determine several pictures of midbrain syndrome and obstructive hydrocephalus. The authors describe a 38 year-old man affected by a Benedikt's syndrome related to a midbrain multicystic formation. Clinical course, differential diagnosis, and therapeutic choice are here also briefly discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
