Delayed regression of atypical meningiomatosis following discontinuation of gender-affirming hormone therapy in a transgender woman: a case report
CPA cessation alone may be an effective way to halt and even regress meningioma progression. However, its effect appears to be delayed, indicating that cessation alone is suboptimal in cases causing significant mass effect and symptomatology. In such cases, early surgical intervention should be considered.
