ABSTRACT
A suprasellar meningioma with multiple intratumoral cysts in a 6-month-old boy is reported. A review of literature disclosed only 11 cases so far. They showed a characteristic predominance in males and predominance of fibroblastic type on pathological examination. Intratumoral cystes are less common than peritumoral cysts. The various hypothesis regarding cyst formation are discussed.
