Article Synopsis
- - Meningioma and vestibular schwannoma (VS) are the two most common benign CNS tumors, and their simultaneous occurrence is rare, especially in pediatric patients, as illustrated by a case of a 15-year-old Nepali boy.
- - The patient presented with symptoms like hearing loss and seizures, leading to a diagnosis of bilateral VS and meningioma; he underwent radiosurgery for the VS while the meningioma was managed non-operatively, resulting in improved symptoms.
- - Understanding the coexistence of these tumors is complex and under-researched, particularly regarding their genetic mechanisms, necessitating more studies to enhance treatment strategies and patient care.
