Co‐occurrence of brain tumours and demyelination of the central nervous system: coincidence or interrelation?

2008 
The co-occurrence of a brain tumour and demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) constitutes a rare clinical entity. We herein report the incidence of meningioma and CNS non-specific demyelination in a patient with a 6-year history of operated brain tumour (meningioma). Our case bolsters the argument that in at least some cases, the occurrence of a brain tumour could predispose to CNS non-specific demyelination.
