Abstract
We reported a 71 years old woman, with history of rest and postural tremor, bradykinesia and memory problems. In her dynamic MRI, a contrastenhanced tumor in the cerebellopontine (CP) angle was found which was compatible with a meningioma. 99mTc-TRODAT SPECT showed decreased activity in the left putamen, indicating idiopathic Parkinson disease. There was also a focus of increased activity on the right side of the skull base, which was compatible with meningioma in MRI.
