Abstract
The authors present a retrospective study of 15 patients with post-tra umatic intracranial meningioma. The 15 cases were selected according t o the criteria specified in the relevant literature. Assessment of cli nical characteristics in these patients seems to confirm that in some cases head trauma may be a factor contributing to the development of m eningioma.
