Imaging revealed a tumour eroding through the inner and outer skull tables, closely associated with major underlying dural sinuses. She underwent complete macroscopic resection of the tumour and reconstruction of a titanium mesh cranioplasty. Histology favoured a benign process with a diagnosis of BFH of the calvarium given. At 1 year follow-up, the patient is asymptomatic and has not developed recurrence of the tumour.展开更多
文摘Presented is a case of benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH) involving the calvarium of a 25 years old lady who noticed a depression in her occiput associated with localised pain. Imaging revealed a tumour eroding through the inner and outer skull tables, closely associated with major underlying dural sinuses. She underwent complete macroscopic resection of the tumour and reconstruction of a titanium mesh cranioplasty. Histology favoured a benign process with a diagnosis of BFH of the calvarium given. At 1 year follow-up, the patient is asymptomatic and has not developed recurrence of the tumour.
