Abstract

Meningiomas constitute 15 to 20 percent of intracranial tumors. They are twice as common in women as in men. The peak age of incidence is 45 years. These tumors occur with increased frequency and at an earlier age in patients with neurofibromatosis. The signs and symptoms of meningioma are usually nonspecific; they may include headaches, visual impairment and focal seizures. These symptoms may be longstanding.
