Meningioma in a patient with Werner syndrome.

Neurology India - 1 Jan 2000

Pattankar Sanjeev, Churi Omkar, Misra Basant K

Abstract excerpt

Werner syndrome (WS), also known as adult progeria, is extremely rare, with about 1300 known cases in the world, with over 1000 of these in Japan. It occurs due to loss of function mutations in the WRN gene located on chromosome 8p12. WS is characterized by premature aging and increased risk of neoplasms, with meningiomas being the commonest intracranial tumor. We report the case of a 39-year-old male patient,...
