| Description |
Meningiomas involving the sphenoid wing represent 12.2 to 25% of all intracranial meningiomas in adults. In children, only 4.2-15% of intracranial meningiomas involved the sphenoid wing. Arising from arachnoid rest cells, these typically benign lesions are characterized by a slow growth pattern and lead to neurologic symptoms through their compressive nature. This poster presentation details the diagnosis, treatment, and outcome of 1 previously reported and 3 previously unreported pediatric patients with sphenoid wing meningioma, and reviews cases from previous literature. |
