ABSTRACT
Despite of their frequent occurrence among the brain tumor, meningiomas are rarely seen as a multiple growth. Most authors report an incidence ranging from 1 to 3% of all meningioma prior to the introduction of computed tomography. After the CT has introduced, diagnostic problems involved with multiple meningiomas were resolved, and its reported incidence was arisen to 8~8.9% of all meningiomas. It may be difficult to differenciate multiple meningioma from the special varient(forme fruste) of von Recklinghausen's disease. Although the pathogenetic factors related to the multiple meningiomas are unknown, various theories of the etiology have been studied and reported. We report a patient with multiple meningioma without evidence of von Recklinghausen's diseases.
