Sarcomatous Meningioma

Meningiomas and sarcomas are malignant tumors that are extremely rare and represent one of the most serious diseases. These tumors appear due to spontaneous degeneration of cells in the skull or spinal cord. To understand what this means, let’s do a little anatomical education. The head contains 35 bones, each of which has its own cavity. This cavity is filled with a fluid called cerebrospinal fluid. In the center of the skull it is called the superior medulla. The mass of the liquid itself is quite insignificant, but it makes up only 90% of the mass of the entire liquid part in the skull. The remaining 10% falls on the spinal canal. The space between the bones of the skull is considered the most dangerous area for tumors to occur. This is the same risk from which even those who once had excellent physical activity and a strong body do not return alive.

Sarcoma is an aggressive neoplasm that includes many pathological syndromes and inflammatory processes. Among them, tissue necrosis, the appearance of adhesions in nearby tissues and reactive inflammation are noted. The pathogenesis of the disease is the formation of a tumor outside the brain, intracerebral vessels. In any case, with the exception of isolated cases, this is always an inoperable malignant tumor, a tumor without a capsule, growing into any part of the skull. This is the main rule, which sounds like a separate law, reflecting the complete anatomical and physiological mechanism of the disease. Another definition of sarcoma, which is included in its pathogenesis, deserves special attention. Due to the fact that the process can begin on the skin of the face and head. Thus, metastasis affects both the entire brain and nearby facial tissues.
