Abstract
We report a case of a 73-year-old woman presenting with intracranial and extracranial meningioma with perineural spread crossing the foramen rotundum and pterygopalatine fossa, primarily along the maxillary nerve. She visited our hospital with the chief complaint of the left cheek swelling. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-demarcated mass containing intracranial (cavernous sinus, Meckel's cave, and middle cranial fossa) and extracranial components (pterygopalatine fossa, orbit, nasal cavity, ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses, infratemporal fossa, and buccal space) through the foramen rotundum. A biopsy specimen was obtained from the cheek mass, and the histopathological diagnosis was meningothelial meningioma.
