Multiple meningioma is a condition in which more than one intracranial lesion is seen in different location and these lesions may occur with or without signs of neurofibromatosis. Incidence of multiple meningioma range from 1 to 10% in different series. We report a case of multiple meningioma in a 33 years old female who had 14 intracranial lesions both supratentorially and infratentorially, and underwent surgery for large right lateral intraventricular meningioma. She had two meningiomas located in posterior fossa associated with supratentorial meningioma, which has been rarely reported.
