Acute Progression of Recurrent Meningioma during Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone Agonist Treatment for Prostate Cancer
2016, World NeurosurgeryCitation Excerpt :Meningiomas are the most commonly diagnosed tumors of the central nervous system, with an incidence rate among women that is twice as high as that among men.1,2 Several studies have demonstrated that hormones including progesterone, estrogen, luteinizing hormone (LH), and LH-releasing hormone (LHRH), affect the proliferation of these tumors.3-5 We report the case of a patient with a falcotentorial junction meningioma who underwent subtotal resection and had no recurrence for 18 years, and who then experienced rapid tumor progression during unrelated LHRH agonist treatment.
