[The association of intracranial meningioma with arteriovenous malformation and aneurysm (author's transl)].
A rate case was reported in which a brain tumor was also found in a patient who had an intracranial arteriovenous malformation and a cerebral aneurysm separately. A 56-year-old man was admitted with motor weakness and repeated convulsions in the left lower limb. Preoperative right and left carotid angiograms showed an arteriovenous malformation in the left parietal region and a left internal carotid artery aneurysm, but both the carotid angiograms and brain scintigrams could reveal no brain tumor. After the radical operation for these two lesions, pneumoencephalography, right serial carotid angiography and brain scintigraphy were performed, demonstrating a right parasagittal tumor. The tumor was totally removed and histological findings were fibrous meningioma.
