Lypmhoplasmacyte rich meningioma-a rare morphological variant of meningioma

摘要

Lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma (LPM) is a rare variant of meningioma accounting for less than 1% of all meningiomas. It is characterized by extensive infiltrate of lymphocytes and plasma cells often obscuring the meningothelial component. We report a case of a 21-year-old male who presented with a solid cystic lesion in the right fronto-parietal region. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examination finally helped in reaching the diagnosis of lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma. Recognition of this entity is of paramount importance to guide appropriate therapy and management.
