English Abstract
Journal Article
[Primary pulmonary meningioma; report of a case].
Primary pulmonary meningiomas are quite rare, and their occurrence has been reported only sporadically. A 49-year-old, asymptomatic female was hospitalized for the evaluation of a coin lesion in the left lung radiography. She has no history of previous neoplasm or symptom referable to the central nervous system. Chest computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a 9 x 14 mm, round, noncalcified, well-demarcated lesion in the left upper lobe of the lung (S(1+2)). For diagnostic purposes, enucleation of the tumor was performed. The resected specimen revealed histologically classical typical meningioma. Because postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain did not show any intracranial mass, this case was and diagnosed as a primary pulmonary meningioma. The patient was discharged with no complication, and alive without recurrence of disease 14 months after surgery.
