✓ Long-term survivors of Hodgkin disease may develop second primary tumors caused by the mutagenic effects of radio- and chemotherapy. The authors describe the case of a 35-year-old woman who presented with an unusual meningioma of the cervical spine 9 years after undergoing combined-modality treatment for Hodgkin disease. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of spinal meningioma as a complication of such therapy. Whereas radiation-induced intracranial meningiomas are well described in the literature, treatment-induced meningiomas of the spine have not been widely recognized.

✓ The management of spinal meningiomas with extensive involvement of the dura mater is controversial. The principal difficulty in performing a resection is the potential for complications associated with this approach. The authors present the case of a pregnant 35-year-old woman in whom bilateral lower-extremity numbness, weakness, gait ataxia, and myelopathy developed. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a recurrent thoracic meningioma with extensive infiltration of the dura mater. Durectomy, complete resection, and reconstruction were performed. The patient has not experienced a recurrence 21 months after her treatment. This case illustrates that thoracic spinal meningiomas with extensive dural involvement can be resected safely with a complete durectomy. The novel dural reconstruction involving the implantation of a fascia lata and bovine pericardium allograft is an effective way to reconstruct the dura to create an adequate barrier to cerebrospinal fluid.
