Abstract
We describe a case with left hemiparkinsonism due to a parasagittal meningioma with surrounding edema compressing the right basal ganglia. The patient was successfully operated and his symptoms resolved completely. However 7 years later his hemiparkinsonism reappeared due to a relapse of the right parasagittal meningioma. This rare case points to the significance of neuroimaging in the evaluation of parkinsonism.Entities:
