We present the case of a 70-year-old man who had a prostate adenocarcinomathat metastatized to a previously unknown cranialmeningioma. Central nervous system (CNS) metastases are veryuncommon in patients with prostate cancer, and metastases topre-existing primary CNS tumours are even more uncommon. Rareevents like this can cause diagnostic uncertainty, as shown by thiscase. This case is a reminder for clinicians to consider prostatemetastases in patients with known prostate carcinoma and focalneurological symptoms.Nous décrivons le cas d'un homme de 70 ans présentant un adénocarcinomemétastatique de la prostate secondaire à un méningiomeintra-crânien non diagnostiqué auparavant. Les métastasesau niveau du SNC sont très rares chez les patients atteints de cancerde la prostate et les métastases sont encore plus rares dansle cas de tumeurs primitives pré-existantes au niveau du SNC.La rareté de ces cas peut soulever des incertitudes au niveau dudiagnostic, comme nous le montrerons. Ce cas permet de rappeleraux cliniciens d'envisager la possibilité de métastases chezles patients atteints d'un carcinome prostatique confirmé et présentantdes signes neurologiques focaux.

A 68-year-old woman presented with a three-week history of confusion and anomic aphasia. Imaging of her head demonstrated a single large left frontal mass. Pathology revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma of Müllerian origin. Subsequent surgery revealed a small primary site in a fallopian tube, high left para-aortic lymphadenopathy, and no disseminated intraperitoneal disease. This case was remarkable in that CNS metastasis was her presenting symptom and was restricted to a solitary brain lesion, and other disease sites were limited to retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy and a small fallopian tube primary.
