Summary
We describe two rare cases of intracranial plasma cell granuloma, a type of tumor. These brain tumors presented with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure and focal neurological deficits.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Oncology
Background:
- Primary intracranial plasma cell granuloma is a rare tumor.
- These tumors originate from the dura mater and affect brain tissue.
Observation:
- Two patients presented with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure.
- Focal neurological deficits were observed in both cases.
Findings:
- The study details two rare instances of primary intracranial plasma cell granuloma.
- Tumors likely originated from the dura and infiltrated the cerebral parenchyma.
Implications:
- Highlights the rarity and clinical presentation of intracranial plasma cell granuloma.
- Discusses management challenges associated with these rare brain tumors.
