Spinal meningiomas are much more common in women. The peak age incidence of presentation occurs in the sixth decade. Cystic meningiomas are rare and seem to have a predilection for children. We report a case of cystic spinal meningioma in a young man presenting as a ring enhancing lesion on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). This case is unusual because of the atypical features of the tumour, the relatively young age and sex of the patient.
脊髓脑膜瘤在女性中更为常见。发病的高峰年龄出现在60岁。囊性脑膜瘤很罕见，似乎好发于儿童。我们报告一例年轻男性的囊性脊髓脑膜瘤病例，该病例在磁共振成像（MRI）上表现为环形强化病灶。由于该肿瘤的非典型特征、患者相对年轻的年龄和性别，此病例较为罕见。
