Abstrakt: | Subcutaneous metastasis in the operative route after intracranial meningioma resection is extremely rare. Here we describe the case of a 69-year-old male who was operated on in our department for a convexity meningioma that spread a few years after surgery in the soft tissues next to the craniotomy site. Twenty-one other cases have been found in the medical literature. In this article, we discuss mechanisms of growth, presentation and management of subcutaneous meningiomas. |
