Foramen magnum chordoid meningioma in a 22-year-old female

to related objects

Chordoid meningioma is a rare variety of meningioma (0.5%–1%) with high rate of recurrence. They are grouped in WHO Grade II tumors. They are mainly distributed in the supratentorial location. There has been a single report of foramen magnum chordoid meningioma in a 3-year, 6-month-old child. Our patient, a 22-year-old female, admitted with progressive spastic quadriparesis with bowel and bladder involvement. She was operated with tumor resection done; postoperatively, patient showed dramatic improvement in the motor power as well as bowel and bladder function. Histopathology was suggestive of chordoid meningioma. She received 54 Gy of radiotherapy. She is doing well with no neurological deficits and no recurrence at 2-year follow-up.
