LIPOBLASTIC MENINGIOMA
Abstract
A case report of a lipomatous meningioma originating from falx cerebri at right frontoparietal convexity, in a 47 year-old female patient was performed. Nonenhanced CT scan showed a low density mass (31 H.U.). The enhancement was homogeneously dense. A broad-base attachment to the convexity was observed. The surrounding brain edema was minimal.
