Abstract:
:We report the case of a 25 year old male who presented with a well-circumscribed mass in the infratemporal fossa, without intracranial localisation. On histological examination, this tumor was a transitional type of meningioma. We review the literature and discuss the pathogenesis and the differential diagnosis.
