Atypical intradiploic meningioma: A case report and review of the literature

BACKGROUND: Intradiploic meningiomas with osteolytic bony changes are rarely reported in the literature. Intradiploic meningiomas are usually slow-growing benign lesions but atypical histopathology predicts aggressive behavior. Atypical intradiploic meningiomas (WHO Grade II) have some controversies...

description BACKGROUND: Intradiploic meningiomas with osteolytic bony changes are rarely reported in the literature. Intradiploic meningiomas are usually slow-growing benign lesions but atypical histopathology predicts aggressive behavior. Atypical intradiploic meningiomas (WHO Grade II) have some controversies in the management which are highlighted in this article. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 40-year-old male, with a history of trauma to the head 12 years back, presented with a hard, slow-growing painless swelling exactly at the site of trauma. On imaging, lesion was intradiploic one with osteolytic margins and homogeneously enhancing on contrast magnetic resonance imaging. Biopsy was that of atypical meningioma (WHO Grade II). CONCLUSION: Atypical meningiomas with osteolytic changes are rarely reported in the literature. Because of potential aggressive behavior, they need a regular follow-up with radiological imaging.
