Abstract
The authors present 20 cases of likely post-traumatic intracranial meningiomas selected according to the conditions specified in the relevant literature. The relationship between head injury and subsequent development of meningioma remains a controversial and fascinating subject. The etiopathogenetic mechanisms and clinical features of our patients and those of the literature are discussed.Keywords
