Abstract

A 36-year-old woman presented with severe frontal headache, fever, left palpebral swelling, and proptosis. Radiographic studies showed a giant frontoethmoidal osteoma, that extended intracranially into the frontal lobe and was associated with two abscesses, one within the lesion and the other in the right frontal lobe. The tumour was excised and the abscesses drained. The patient made a full recovery.
