Abstract

Chordoid meningioma, classified as WHO grade II, are rare tumors comprising only 0.5% of all meningiomas. Chordoid meningioma is an aggressive tumor with high local recurrence. Orbital chordoid meningioma is a much rare entity with very few cases reported in the literature. We report a case of a 77-year-old male who presented with a painless progressive swelling over the right lateral orbital wall.
