Description Meningiomas account for approximately 15% of all intracranial tumors. Of these, 15-20% involve the anterior cranial fossa floor and can extend to involve the cavernous sinus. The majority of patients present with visual disturbances, the most common of which are decreased visual acuity, color vision deficits, and visual field defects from optic neuropathy, diplopia from ocularmotor nerve pareses, and facial pain or numbness from trigeminal sensory neuropathy.
