A 51-year-old woman presented with a fourth ventricle meningioma manifesting as a 2-week history of dizziness and vomiting. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed a round mass lesion in the fourth ventricle. Thallium-201 chloride single photon emission computed tomography (201TlCl SPECT) showed high and rapid uptake on the early image and rapid washout on the delayed image. The preoperative diagnosis of meningioma could be established based on these findings. Total removal of the tumor was successfully performed. 201TlCl SPECT is useful for the preoperative diagnosis of fourth ventricle meningioma combined with CT, MR imaging, and angiography.
