RESUMO
The simultaneous occurrence of two distinct intracranial neoplasms within a single patient presents a unique and exceedingly rare clinical scenario. Such cases pose significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, complicating clinical decision-making and treatment planning. Understanding the intricacies of these cases is crucial for improving patient outcomes and advancing clinical knowledge. This report aims to provide valuable insights into the complexities surrounding the management of patients with coexisting different intracranial neoplasms. This case report seeks to enhance the understanding of healthcare professionals dealing with similar cases and contribute to the existing literature on this rare phenomenon. This case report details a patient harboring two different but coexisting intracranial neoplasms. The patient, a 73-year-old woman, presented with behavioral changes and bilateral leg weakness. Initial imaging studies, including CT and MRI scans, revealed the presence of two distinct intracranial masses located in the frontal lobes and the falx cerebri. Neurosurgical, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy were offered; however, the patient's family opted for palliative care. The concurrent presence of two distinct intracranial neoplasms in a single patient underscores the complexity of such cases. This report highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges encountered and the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to managing these patients. By sharing this case, we hope to contribute to a broader understanding of such rare clinical scenarios and aid in developing more effective management strategies in the future.
