[Meningioma with pseudo-vascular disclosure].
In a retrospective study of 125 case reports of intracranial supratentorial meningiomas, the authors have isolated 10 patients whose meningioma had been revealed by pseudo-vascular syndromes. Mean age and sex ratio were the same in this group of patients as in those patients whose meningioma had been more classically disclosed by an epileptic seizure, a motor or a progressive sensorimotor deficit. The site of the tumour exerted an influence on the nature of clinical manifestations. There was no correlation between the size of the tumour and the transient or prolonged course of the pseudo-vascular syndrome. The pathogenesis of these disorders is discussed.
