title: Transient ischaemic attacks due to meningioma--report of 4 cases.
abstract: Computed tomography of patients diagnosed as having transient ischaemic attacks has revealed a heterogenous group whose symptoms may be due to completed infarcts or space-occupying lesions (such as neoplasia). Four such cases due to meningioma are presented including one which atypically simulated an infarct on an unenhanced scan. A sign to differentiate this from a true infarct is discussed.
