Abstract

Intraosseous meningiomas, although uncommon, represent a distinctive and important subset of meningiomas. These slow-growing tumors arise from the arachnoid cells present in the meninges and infiltrate the adjacent bone, often presenting as palpable masses. This case report focuses on a female with a frontal bone intraosseous meningioma and its management and challenges, including autologous bone reconstruction (cranioplasty).
