Idiopathic hypertrophic cranial pachymeningitis: a case report
Abstract
Hypertrophic pachymeningitis is a rare fibrosing inflammatory process involving dura mater and tentorium. In this report we are presenting contrast enhanced MRI findings of an unusual case of pachymeningitis which presented with a periorbital mass due to dural sinuses occlusion and retrograde filling of periorbital veins through superior sagittal sinus.
