Convexity dural hemangioma: illustrative case.
J Neurosurg Case Lessons
November 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, New Orleans, Louisiana.
Background: Dural hemangiomas are a relatively rare form of intracranial mass, as hemangiomas tend to present in bone or as intraparenchymal lesions and only around 5%-13% have been reported to originate from the dura mater. Here, the authors present the case of a 46-year-old female who underwent craniotomy for a suspected convexity meningioma resection, which was unexpectedly found to be a dural capillary hemangioma.
Observations: The patient was a 46-year-old female who presented with a left frontal intracranial mass found incidentally and showed significant growth over 4 years.
Meningiomas of the parieto-occipital convexity mimicking a hematoma: A case report in a third-world country.

Neurosurgery Unit, Department of Surgery, Edward Francis Small Teaching Hospital (EFSTH), Banjul, The Gambia.
Background: Meningiomas are benign, slow-growing tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) that arise from the arachnoid matter. It comprises one of the most common primary tumors of the CNS, occurring mostly in and after the fifth decade of life with a female gender predilection. Diagnosis is facilitated by imaging computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); however, atypical forms exist which augments the risk of missing the diagnosis.

Acta Neurochir (Wien)
September 2024
Department of Neurological Surgery, Hospital Universitari Germans Trias I Pujol, Ctra del Canyet Sn, CP 08916, Barcelona, Badalona, Spain.
Purpose: Surgery close to or in contact with the ventricular system is challenging due to the complications. We sought to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of TachoSil® as a ventricular sealant in preventing complications after cranial surgery with an open ventricular system (OVS).
Methods: This is a single-center and prospective cohort study We included patients who underwent elective surgery for supratentorial craniotomy and periventricular pathology between December 2020 and November 2023.
Imaging features of pediatric meningiomas: emphasis on unusual locations.
Childs Nerv Syst
December 2024
Deparment of Radiology, Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University, Zunyi, Guizhou, China.
Purpose: This article aims to analyze pediatric meningioma's imaging characteristics, especially those in unusual locations.
Methods: Pediatric patients with pathologically confirmed meningiomas at our hospital from January 2010 to January 2024 were enrolled. Meningiomas located in the cerebral convexity, parasagittal falcine region, anterior skull base, middle skull base, sphenoid ridge, cerebellopontine angle (CPA), olfactory groove, or juxtasella were considered in usual locations.

Ventricular meningiomas are neoplastic cells originating from the ependymal lining of the central canal of the spinal cord and the ventricles of the brain. These tumorigenic cells predominantly manifest in the fourth ventricle, followed by the spinal cord. Most intraparenchymal ventricular meningiomas are located within the brain tissue, exhibiting a higher degree of malignancy compared to their intracerebroventricular counterparts.
