Abstract

Abstract Meningiomas are common intracranial neoplasms. In pregnant women, the incidence of intracranial meningioma is comparable with that in nonpregnant women of the same age group, with an incidence of 1–4.5/100,000. These patients usually present with headaches, nausea, vomiting, and visual disturbances.

The cases were managed by a multidisciplinary team, considering the patients’s neurologic manifestation, age of gestation of pregnancy, and tumor complications.
