Abstract:	A 13-year-old Spanish Breton was presented for a hyperacute onset of dull mentationfollowed by a generalised tonic-clonic seizure and recumbency. An intracranial mag-netic resonance imaging study identified a well-demarcated intraventricular mass, andcerebrospinal fluid analysis revealed moderate neutrophilic pleocytosis and proteinor-rachia. A tentative diagnosis of meningioma was made and medical treatment wasstarted. After a short initial improvement, the patient died 3 weeks later. Histopathologyconfirmed the presence of a malignant meningioma (World Health Organizationgrade III) and pulmonary metastasis. This is, to our knowledge, the first reported caseof a canine intracranial meningioma with pulmonary metastasis showing magneticresonance imaging and immunohistochemical characterisation of the tumour.
