Abstract

Cerebral metastases from any malignancy, including prostate carcinoma, may present as a meningeal mass, and differentiating the lesion from a meningioma can be challenging. We report the clinical and neuroimaging features of two patients with dural metastases from prostate carcinoma and discuss differentiation of metastatic lesions from meningioma. In both patients, it appeared that the prostate carcinoma had been successfully treated, and neither patient was found to have any other metastases at the time of diagnosis of the dural lesions.

摘要

来自任何恶性肿瘤的脑转移，包括前列腺癌，可能表现为脑膜肿块，并且区分病变与脑膜瘤可能具有挑战性。我们报告了两名前列腺癌脑膜转移患者的临床和神经影像学特征，并讨论了转移病变与脑膜瘤的鉴别。在这两名患者中，前列腺癌似乎已得到成功治疗，并且在诊断脑膜病变时均未发现任何其他转移。
