A 60 year old lady presented with progressive increasing swelling over the scalp for 1 year and mild headache for 2 months. Examination revealed a non tender bony hard mass over the left parietal region. CT scan showed localized hyperostosis and thickening of the left parietal bone, with normal underlying brain parenchyma. The mass was surgically excised. Histopathology was suggestive of meningothelial meningioma. The case is discussed in the light of relevant literature.
