Abstract
Meningioma is the most common benign primary brain tumour and does not usually metastasise. We report the case of a 69-year-old male patient with a history of meningioma who presented respiratory symptoms. He was found to have diffuse pleural metastasis from meningioma, which occurred 10 years after surgical management of recurrent meningioma. This case study provides insights into the clinical profile, workup and management of metastatic meningioma.
