Abstract
A unique epileptic patient with intracranial neoplasm is reported in which a meningioma with lipomatous and osseous components was found associated with cerebral arteriovenous malformation at the same location in the right frontal lobe. The development of the leptomeningeal neoplasm may have been influenced by the underlying vascular anomaly. The cerebral arteriovenous malformation and altered hemodynamics also could have induced the sudden onset of clinical seizures, hemiparesis, and unconsciousness.
