Overview

Case report demonstrates improved executive functions in an elderly woman post-venous-sparing resection of a meningioma, suggesting its role in neurodegenerative disease.

Key Points

  • This report aims to illustrate the relationship between giant sphenoid wing meningiomas and reversible frontal network lesions.
  • Case presentation of an older female with executive function decline over two years.
  • Used multimodal imaging including MRI and neuropsychological evaluation for assessment.
  • Performed venous-sparing skull-base surgery with Simpson Grade I resection.
  • Patient showed significant improvements in executive functions and cognitive assessments post-surgery.
  • Follow-up imaging indicated persistent decompression and symmetric ventricles.
