MICROSCOPIC DESCRIPTION: Paraffin sections show a moderately hypercellular meningioma with a mixed syncytial and microcystic architecture. Tumour cells show mild nuclear atypia. Intracytoplasmic cysts are seen, displacing the nucleus peripherally. No mitotic figures or areas of necrosis are identified and there is no evidence of brain invasion. Broad attachment to dura is noted.
DIAGNOSIS: Meningioma - microcystic variant.
