Although benign, they can be locally aggressive tumors causing bone destruction and compression related symptoms. We report the case of a 19 years old, normotensive female who presented with headache and vertigo for the past six months.

A collision tumor is a rare neoplastic lesion consisting of two or more coexisting, distinct cell line entities. In this report, we present the case of a 56-year-old male patient with a history of colon cancer who presented to the emergency room with visual deficits that had started about eight months earlier. An ophthalmologic examination reported left homonymous hemianopsia, prompting a brain MRI, which showed a right posterior temporal extra-axial mass concerning intracerebral metastatic colon cancer, in consideration of patient history.

The 54-day-old full-term male infant presented to the emergency department due to an increase in head size since the age of 21 days, associated with vomiting after feeding.

The patient is a 51-year-old woman who had been experiencing syncope and near-syncopal events for at least 10 years with an otherwise benign neurological exam. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an extra-axial mass consistent with a midline planum and tuberculum sellae meningioma, for which the patient opted to have resected. We demonstrate how performing a posterior orbitotomy with anterior clinoidectomy can enhance a lateral supraorbital craniotomy.
