Dural tail sign positive tumors: Points to make a differential diagnosis

Representative patients were treated with total surgical mass resection, and each tumor was histopathologically confirmed to have a secretory meningioma, intradural metastasis of gynecologic origin, and dural metastasis of lung origin. The imaging findings of these patients were inconclusive in diff...

description Representative patients were treated with total surgical mass resection, and each tumor was histopathologically confirmed to have a secretory meningioma, intradural metastasis of gynecologic origin, and dural metastasis of lung origin. The imaging findings of these patients were inconclusive in differentiating meningioma from metastasis; hence, advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques were considered. Based on these reports, we studied how to differentiate typical meningiomas from atypical and malignant meningiomas and other dura-based malignant tumors using conventional computed tomography and MRI.
