Overview
Meningioma must be differentiated from other diseases that cause headache, seizures, and diplopia, such as schwannoma, hemangiopericytoma, and solitary fibrous tumor.[1]
Differentiating Meningioma from other Diseases
- Meningioma must be differentiated from other diseases that cause headache, seizures, and diplopia, such as schwannoma, hemangiopericytoma, and solitary fibrous tumor.[1]
- Meningioma must also be differentiated from other diseases such as:[2][1][3]
- Astrocytoma
- Oligodendroglioma
- Ependymoma
- Mixed gliomas
- Acoustic neuroma
- Primary central nervous system lymphoma
- CNS vascular malformations
- Hemangioblastoma
- Extramedullary haematopoeisis
- Pituitary adenoma
- Craniopharyngioma
- Chondrosarcoma
- Chordoma
- Metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma
- Brain and spinal cord cysts
- Granuloma due to sarcoidosis or tuberculosis
