Dural-based metastasis mimicking meningioma: A rare case report.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The incidence of dural-based metastasis (DBM) is 4% of all patients diagnosed with metastatic cancers. DBM most commonly arises from primary cancers of the lung, breast, and prostate. Most cerebral metastasis lesions are intra axial tumors, whereas a dural base metastasis mimicking meningioma is uncommon. Case Description: Here, we are presenting a case report of a 64-year-old woman with a history of treated left breast cancer 14 years ago, who presented to us in the casualty with left lower limb weakness for 1 month and dizziness for 7 days. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, plain and contrast, showed a dural-based lesion over the right parieto-occipital region. Patient underwent surgical removal of the lesion, and its histopathological examination (HPE) and immunohistochemistry showed a DBM with primary from the breast. Conclusion: This case report discusses the clinical aspects of a case we observed, in which a dural-based metastasis mimicking a meningioma was confirmed on HPE in a previously treated case of breast cancer.
