Abstract

Meningiomas are generally slow-growing benign tumors associated with the dura. They form lumps that mostly grow extra-axially, by repulsing, rather than infiltrating the surrounding neural parenchyma. Majority of meningiomas are intracranial. However, although rare, meningioma formation has been reported in almost all other organs. We report the case of a patient with an extra-neuraxial meningioma presenting as a nasopharyngeal mass.
