  • Title: [Incidental finding of a meningioma-en-plaque in a patient with prostate adenocarcinoma].
    Author: Cotrina Monroy AP, López López A, Ruiz Solis S, Gómez Embuena A.
    Journal: Rev Esp Med Nucl; 2010; 29(5):254-7. PubMed ID: 20398966.
    Abstract:
    Meningiomas-en-plaques (MEP) are characterized by an area of hyperostosis and constitute a diagnostic challenge, especially when associated with other underlying conditions, and may mimic other clinical conditions. We present a case of a large MEP, which was an incidental finding on a scintigraphy study of a patient with prostate adenocarcinoma, this finding being histologically confirmed. In regards to the case, we discuss the utility of the bone scintigraphy (BS) in relationship to other imaging modalities.
