Extension of craniopharyngiomas into the third ventricle may cause hydrocephalus. Meningiomas can develop from the arachnoid layer.

Medial sphenoid ridge types can ...
Meningioma seen at autopsy, as a tumor of the dura mater extending into the cranial cavity, and can be detached from the bone along with the rest of the dura mater. Small tumors (e.g., < 2.0 cm) usually are incidental findings at autopsy without having caused symptoms. Larger tumors may cause symptoms, depending on the size and location.
The meninges lie between the skull and brain matter. Tumors originating from the meninges are meningiomas.

It can be controlled and understood, and one possible way of better doing that might be through studying CCD in canines.
