Type III intraosseous meningioma is a very rare type of meningioma with extracranial extension. Herein, the author reported a case of type IIIC intraosseous meningioma with invasion of the superior sagittal sinus and skull periosteum. A 67-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital due to a mass on the left frontoparietal region for 4 years. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a skull tumor with invasion of the superior sagittal sinus. After partial resection of the tumor, pathological and immunohistochemical staining revealed that the epithelial meningioma derived from skull involved the skull periosteum. There was no enlargement of residual parasagittal tumor after 1 year of follow-up. The intraosseous meningioma in the present case was a rare benign tumor with good prognosis after surgery.

Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS) is a congenital disorder with characteristic clinical manifestations. In the vast majority of cases, it is caused by mutations of the gene encoding the transcriptional co-activator cAMP-response element binding protein (CBP)-binding protein (CREBBP). It has been thought to be a tumor predisposition syndrome as RTS patients have an increased risk of developing tumors including meningiomas.

Primary intraosseous meningiomas are rare extradural tumors. They are typically slow-growing, painless, and asymptomatic until they cause a mass effect. We report a case of a calvarial primary intraosseous meningioma, which became symptomatic despite a very small size.

Intraosseous meningiomas are a rare subtype of meningiomas representing approximately 2% of all cases. They can confound a diagnosis of other bone lesions including metastatic tumors. We present a case of a patient with prostate cancer who on staging workup was suspected to have a skull metastasis.

Background: Common calvarial lesions include fibrous dysplasia (FD), intraosseous meningioma, osteoma, Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), intraosseous hemangioma, dermoid and epidermoid cyst, and malignancy. Surgical removal with removal of the involved skull is the choice of treatment for these lesions. Previously, the skull defect was repaired using allograft, and alloplastic materials have been replaced with newer polyetheretherketone (PEEK) material, which is more resistant, biocompatible, and can be 3-dimension (3D)--printed.

Purpose: This article aims to analyze pediatric meningioma's imaging characteristics, especially those in unusual locations.

Methods: Pediatric patients with pathologically confirmed meningiomas at our hospital from January 2010 to January 2024 were enrolled. Meningiomas located in the cerebral convexity, parasagittal falcine region, anterior skull base, middle skull base, sphenoid ridge, cerebellopontine angle (CPA), olfactory groove, or juxtasella were considered in usual locations.
