Intraventricular Meningioma: A Case Report of a Common Tumor in an Uncommon Location.

Intraventricular meningiomas are uncommon neoplasms originating within the ventricular system of the brain, constituting a rare subset of central nervous system tumors. Their unique location poses diagnostic challenges, and understanding their clinical manifestations is imperative for effective management. We present the case of a 56-year-old female who sought medical attention due to persistent, severe headaches localized in the occipital region. Laboratory investigations demonstrated normal values for a complete blood count, electrolytes, and liver function tests. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-defined mass in the left occipital horn of the lateral ventricle, indicative of an intraventricular meningioma. Surgical resection of the intraventricular meningioma resulted in the resolution of the patient's headaches. This case contributes valuable insights into the diagnostic challenges posed by intraventricular meningiomas.
