    Abstract:
    Type III intraosseous meningioma is a very rare type of meningioma with extracranial extension. Herein, the author reported a case of type IIIC intraosseous meningioma with invasion of the superior sagittal sinus and skull periosteum. A 67-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital due to a mass on the left frontoparietal region for 4 years. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a skull tumor with invasion of the superior sagittal sinus. After partial resection of the tumor, pathological and immunohistochemical staining revealed that the epithelial meningioma derived from skull involved the skull periosteum. There was no enlargement of residual parasagittal tumor after 1 year of follow-up. The intraosseous meningioma in the present case was a rare benign tumor with good prognosis after surgery.
