Abstract

We report a case of lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma (LPM) in a 22-year-old woman who presented with headache, hemiparesis and hypoaesthesia. MRI revealed a meningioma at the foramen magnum region that was resected by far-lateral approach. This case represents the second LPM to be reported at this site and highlights the importance of distinguishing it from other lesions that may have significant population of lymphocytes and plasma cells.
