JBJS case connector(2021)
摘要
CASE:Meningioma is the second most common intracranial tumor. We present 2 cases of foramen magnum meningioma (FMM) that was first operated on with the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).CONCLUSION:During the diagnostic assessment of CTS and recalcitrant CTS, a more proximal etiology of nerve compression should be considered, including FMM. If a more proximal cause of nerve dysfunction is suspected, cervical spine magnetic resonance imaging may be beneficial to evaluate a patient for spinal etiology.
