Meningioangiomatosis is a rare disease of the brain. It is characterized by a benign lesion of the leptomeninges usually involving the cerebral cortex, and by leptomeningeal and meningovascular proliferation. Often the patient will present with seizures. The disease may be either or associated with neurofibromatosis type 2. The lesion is usually focused in one place, though extremely rare multifocal cases have been reported in both adults and children. Biopsy is usually necessary for diagnosis. Treatment conventionally involves surgical removal of the lesion.

  • Meningioangiomatose é uma doença rara do cérebro, caracterizada por uma lesão benigna das leptomeninges que, geralmente, envolve o córtex cerebral e causa, no paciente, frequentes convulsões. A doença pode ser esporádica ou associada à neurofibromatose tipo II (NF2). A lesão ocorre em uma região específica, embora casos em múltiplos locais tenham sido relatados em adultos e crianças. A biópsia é necessária para o diagnóstico, tendo a remoção cirúrgica como forma de tratamento. (pt)
