Tumour-induced Osteomalacia Secondary to Intracranial Tumours - Report of 2 Cases.

Tumor induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a paraneoplastic syndrome which is mostly caused by a phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour mixed connective tissue variant (PMTMCT). These tumours do not have any specific site predilection but their presence in cranial compartment is very rare. Two cases of TIO secondary to phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour at the skull base are described ahead, one of which was in the posterior fossa and the other in middle cranial fossa.
