Abstract

This report presents an extremely rare case of papillary meningioma with prominent flow voids and increased perfusion parameters on MRI in a 28-year-old male presenting with headache. This knowledge helped the neurosurgeon to minimise intra-operative blood loss and achieve a favourable post-surgical outcome.

Contribution: A rare case of papillary meningioma and its differentiating features from typical meningiomas have been discussed considering its implications for management as well as prognostication to reduce morbidity and mortality.

Keywords

papillary meningioma; meningioma; flow voids; magnetic resonance perfusion; prognosis.
