[Temporo-spheno-orbital meningioma. An unusual cause of exophthalmos. Report of one case]
Abstract
We report the case of a 48-year-old woman with no prior medical history who developed headache and unilateral exophthalmos for 6 months. Clinical and radiographic findings detailed the intracranial extension of a temporo-spheno-orbital meningioma. Histological diagnosis was established after curative neurosurgery. This case recalls the characteristic features of temporo-spheno-orbital meningiomas.
