An Extracranial Meningioma Leading to Superior Vena Cava Syndrome

Emmitt A. Sartor, Maansi Parek

Abstract

We present a case of extracranial extension of a WHO grade I meningioma into the right jugular foramen down to the superior vena cava and leading to impaired right atrial venous return. We review relevant literature. This is the only known case of extracranial extension of an intracranial meningioma with benign pathology.
