Abstract

We report two cases of breast cancer in whom meningioma subsequently developed and provide a brief review of the literature. A hormonal interrelationship is suggested. The knowledge of this potential association is important in the interpretation and treatment of patients with breast cancer who develop central nervous system manifestations.
