Abstract

The concurrent presence of multiple primary brain tumours with different histological characteristics is very rare. A case of dual intracranial benign tumours comprising pituitary adenoma and vestibular schwannoma is described. The aetiology and genetic association of these pathologies is explored and the literature of multiple intracranial tumours of different cell types is reviewed.
