description Intracranial calcifications are not uncommon and are mostly seen with intracerebral hematomas, tuberculomas, and brain tumors. These lesions may be intra- or extra-axial and occasionally pose challenge in the diagnosis. We report a case of multiple intracranial extra-axial calcifications with congenital skull anomaly and multiple meningiomas.
