Tumors caused by radiation treatment are not unknown. They may be benign or malignant. Among these, postradiation meningiomas (PRM) are considered to be a distinct entity. A case of a child who developed a PRM is presented. She received radiation therapy for a presumed thalamic glioma 11 years earlier. An unusual and interesting aspect of this tumor was its attachment to the membrane of the old subdural hematoma, following a shunting procedure. There was no dural attachment. The pathology of PRMs and meningiomas in children are discussed in light of our recent experience.
因放射治疗导致的肿瘤并非罕见。它们可能是良性的，也可能是恶性的。其中，放射后脑膜瘤（PRM）被认为是一种独特的实体。本文介绍了一例患PRM的儿童病例。该患儿11年前因疑似丘脑胶质瘤接受了放射治疗。此肿瘤一个不寻常且有趣的方面是，在进行分流手术后，它附着于旧的硬膜下血肿包膜上，且未附着于硬脑膜。结合我们最近的经验，对儿童PRM和脑膜瘤的病理情况进行了讨论。
