Sylvian fissure meningiomas (SFMs) represent a rare subgroup of nondural-based tumors arising from the meningothelial cells within the arachnoid of the Sylvian fissure. SFMs are more frequent in young males, usually manifest with seizures and display the same radiological features of meningiomas in other locations. Although the absence of dural attachment makes these tumors suitable for a complete resection, their anatomical relationships with the middle cerebral artery branches have impaired its achievement in half of them. To the best of our knowledge, only five atypical WHO grade II SFMs have been previously described. We provide a literature review of SFMs WHO grades I–II and discuss common characteristics and surgical challenges we found in a similar case. |
