ABSTRACT
Multiple meningiomas are a seldom encountered neoplasm. Most authors report an incidence ranging from 1 to 3% of all meningioma prior to the introduction of computerized tomography(CT). The routine use of CT has resolved diagnostic problems involved with multiple meningiomas and the incidence was 8% since the introduction of CT scan. In fact, it may be difficult to differentiate "true multiple meningioma" from simple recurrences or the special variant(forme fruste) of Von Recklinghausen's disease, and the pathogenetic factors related to true multiple meningioma is unknown, but various theroies of the etiology are explored by literature reports. We report the rare case of multiple meningiomas which diagnosed by CT scan and confirmed by operation.
