Abstract:
The authors report unusual three cases of large, peri- or intratumoral cystic lesions associated with intracranial meningiomas. These meningiomas may lead to an incorrect presumptive diagnosis because of minic appearance of a glial or metastatic tumor in computed tomography(CT) or magnetic resornance imaging(MRI) finding. Radiological evaluation and recognition are important for the surgical removal of these potentially curable neoplasms.
