Malignant meningioma has a bad prognosis. Surgery and radiotherapy are the most effective therapeutic options, without an established role for chemotherapy. We report a case of 2-year-old male child with diagnosis of postoperative relapse of a malignant meningioma. Considering the rapid progression, the young age and the lack of effective therapeutic alternatives, the patient underwent multidisciplinary anticancer treatment with a protocol made for soft tissue sarcomas (EpSSG NRSSTS 2005 protocol), with positive outcome. This case represents a successful management of an anaplastic meningioma with a multimodal treatment, including chemotherapy, in a pediatric patient.
