[Multiple meningiomas with Werner's syndrome--a case report].
A case of multiple meningiomas with Werner's syndrome is reported. He was 45-year-old man, who complained change of character and slight right motor weakness for 4 months. His symptoms were characteristic small stature, premature senility, scleroderma-like changes and other manifestations. Glucose tolerance test showed a diabetic pattern. CT scan and cerebral angiography revealed multiple meningiomas. After chemical embolization of the feeding artery, we removed these meningiomas successfully. We also reviewed the literature on Werner's syndrome with meningioma.
