  • Title: Extracranial meningioma in the maxillary region.
    Author: Pinting L, Xiaofeng H, Zhiyong W, Wei H.
    Journal: J Craniofac Surg; 2013 Mar; 24(2):e142-4. PubMed ID: 23524815.
    Abstract:
    Extracranial meningioma consists of 1%-2% of all meningiomas. Because it is usually encountered by non-neurosurgeons and its main diagnosis is based on histological examination, it is really hard for "euro-laymen" to distinguish it from other common diseases. Herein we report a 59-year-old male patient with a large, painless mass on his maxilla, finally diagnosed as extracranial meningioma. This case is not frequently seen even in maxillofacial extracranial meningioma.
