Abstract

Background: Meningioma has been considered the most common primary intracranial tumor to contain tumor-to-tumor metastasis. Tumor to tumor metastasis should be suspected in cases of meningioma in a patient with background cancer, regardless of meningioma parameters or cancer status.

Discussion: The phenomenon has been reported in the literature for over a century. However, it remains uncommon. Virtually any benign or malignant tumor can be a recipient, but meningioma has been implicated as the most common. Our case histopathology revealed collision tumor between the incidentally found meningioma and metastatic papillary carcinoma of the endometrium.

Conclusion: Uterine papillary adenocarcinoma metastasis is a rare event; with the tumor to tumor metastasis to incidentally diagnosed intracranial meningioma is also considered uncommon event and so as neurosurgeon we should know and consider such events when dialing with intracranial meningioma.
