Concurrent glial tumors in the setting of a nonsyndromic adjacent/colliding meningioma: illustrative cases
Coexistence/collision of intracranial and spinal meningiomas with another CNS pathology occurs anecdotally. This phenomenon does not necessarily preclude resection of both tumors in a single session, provided that a careful preoperative assessment of the surgical anatomy is undertaken. Conducting studies to evaluate the genomic structures of such cases and to explain why they occur in adjacency could be valuable in explaining this phenomenon. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE24805.
