    Author: Coumbaras M, Pierot L, Felgeres AA, Boulin A, Gaillard S, Derome PJ.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1999 Nov; 41(11):826-8. PubMed ID: 10602855.
    Abstract:
    A giant-cell tumour involving the cranial vault was diagnosed in a 37-year-old man who presented with a large swelling at the vertex. The role of imaging in the diagnosis and treatment of this tumour is described. On CT and MRI the appearances were nonspecific and the diagnosis was established by histological examination after removal of the tumour. A preoperative angiogram showed a tumour blush and before surgery, embolisation was performed via the percutaneous and transarterial routes.
