Abstract
The MRI findings of supratentorial cystic meningioma with a mural nodule are highlighted. These lesions, by virtue of their peripheral location and large cystic component, occasionally mimic gliomas or other intra-axial lesions. Recognition of this entity and keeping it as a differential is important to guide surgical decisions. Leaving behind cystic components at surgery can lead to recurrence of a potentially curable tumor.
