| Popis: | T HE first report of multiple intracranial meningiomas in 1889 by Anfimow and Blumenau I aroused interest which is still current in the problem of multiple brain tumors. Recently, Levin, et al.2 collected 92 such cases, the rate of multiplicity being approximately 2 .3%. The following case of a patient with two intracranial and one spinal cord meningiomas is unique in that the three large tumors occupied separate neuraxial compartments, the cranial vault, posterior fossa, and the spinal canal, and matured symptomatically almost simultaneously. |
