The Management of a Giant Convexity en Plaque Anaplastic Meningioma with Gerstmann Syndrome: A Case Report of Surgical Outcomes in a 76-Year-Old Male
This case emphasizes the complexity of managing giant convexity en plaque anaplastic meningiomas, particularly when associated with Gerstmann syndrome. Surgical resection, despite the challenges posed by tumor size, hypervascularity, and peritumoral edema, can lead to significant neurological recovery, highlighting the potential reversibility of tumor-induced Gerstmann syndrome.
