Intracranial clear-cell meningioma.
Intracranial clear-cell meningioma (CCM) is rarely reported in the literature since it has to be distinguished from other subtypes of meningioma. Most of the CCMs are intraspinal, according to the related literature. We report a case of occipital parietal CCM in a 6-year-old child, review all the 35 intracranial CCMs that have been reported since 1995 to present and discuss their clinical, radiological and histopathologic characteristics.
