Case Report: Complete Resection of a Primary Intraosseous Meningioma in A 15-Year-Old Boy in Mexico, A Rare Entity

Meningiomas are among the most common primary benign tumors and most of them are primary intradural lesions located in the subdural space. According to Casas-Perera et al., they represent 36.4% of the primary intracranial tumors. Meningiomas may be incidental, small, and slow growing tumors or extensive and/or rapidly progressive growing masses. There is a subset of meningiomas that arise outside the intradural space, called Primary Extradural Meningiomas (PEM) which, as the name suggest, develop outside the intracranial compartment and in this myriad of locations, Primary Intraosseous Meningiomas (PIOMs) are considered an uncommon type of PEMs that constitute up to 2% of meningiomas overall.
