  • Title: A vascular sarcoid mass mimicking a convexity meningioma.
    Author: Sandhu FA, Schellinger D, Martuza RL.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 2000 Mar; 42(3):195-8. PubMed ID: 10772141.
    Abstract:
    We report a 48-year-old woman with a left posterior temporal extra-axial mass that had the imaging characteristics of a meningioma on preoperative CT, MRI and angiography. However, a biopsy diagnosis of sarcoidosis was made. This case illustrates that dural-based sarcoid masses can be very vascular and radiographically indistinguishable from meningiomas. Characteristic imaging features of extra- and intra-axial sarcoid lesions are discussed.
