Abstract
|
|
|
Although radiation is a well-known risk factor for the development of meningioma, meningiomas associated with highdose radiation have been rarely reported in children. The authors experienced a case of meningioma developed 5 years after high-dose irradiation for a mixed germ cell tumor of the suprasellar region in a 13-year-old boy. This paper describes clinical and pathological features with review of literature.
