Abstract
- The authors present two cases of interesting intraventricular meningiomas. One of these is located in the left lateral ventricle of 26 years old female with no neurologic deficit, which has moderate vascularity. The other case is located in the right "lateral ventricle of 5 years old female with very large size" the preoperative diagnosis should be reached by means of both computerized tomography and carotid angiography. The selection of surgical approach is very important, espicially in left lateral ventricular tumor, which is determined by neurologic deficit, vascularity of tumor and tumor size. Total removal has been accomplished by superior parietal approach in left lateral ventricular tumor and right temporal approach in child ventricular meningioma. Literatures concerned were reviewed.
