{Abstract}: This case report presents a comprehensive analysis of a 67-year-old patient diagnosed in 2017 with meningothelial meningioma, focusing on the challenges of managing such tumors and their neurological implications. Meningiomas, being the most common benign intracranial neoplasms, have a notable research gap regarding their association with seizures and motor deficits. This patient, who had a history of depressive disorder, persistent cephalalgia syndrome, and ataxic gait, initially presented with symptoms including ataxic gait, confusion, and headache. Imaging revealed a large, hyperdense right frontal meningioma with a significant mass effect. Following surgical resection, the patient experienced notable neurological improvement. However, in 2023, the patient re-presented with bradypsychia, bradykinesia, and memory disorders, indicating a recurrent meningioma. This case exemplifies the recurrence and complex management of meningiomas, particularly in elderly patients, and highlights the importance of individualized treatment strategies. Surgical resection remains the primary treatment approach, supplemented by radiotherapy in cases of recurrence or incomplete resection. The case underscores the need for advancements in therapeutic approaches to mitigate recurrence risks and enhance patient outcomes in meningioma management. This is especially pertinent given the tumor's predilection for older females and its varied neurological manifestations, such as ataxic gait and seizures.
