Aneurysmal bone cysts are very rare in the calvaria. We are reporting a 23 year old white male with a very large right frontal aneurysmal bone cyst and a large follow-up period. The MRI findings--a multiloculated expansive tumor with fluid levels inside--are almost pathognomonic for this lesion. Radical surgery was curative for this patient.
We report the cases of two women who underwent surgery for radical resection of sphenoidal hyperostosing meningiomas "en plaque". Outcome was excellent seven and eight years after surgery. The removal of such osseous sphenoidal lesions has always been accompanied by high rates of morbidity, mortality and recurrence. With new surgical approaches and greater exposure of the skull base, interest is again being directed toward complete resection of these rare tumors, which involve scarce intradural but extensive bone invasion.
