Association of meningioma and ependymoma--case report.

We report the rare association of a meningioma and an ependymoma in a young boy. A meningioma was detected in the left cerebellopontine angle at age 8 months, and an ependymoma in the left frontal lobe 2 years later. Chromosomal analysis was normal, and his family showed no signs of phacomatosis. Both tumors were totally removed, and he recovered well after both operations.
