J Surg Case Rep. 2016 Apr 13;2016(4):rjw051. doi: 10.1093/jscr/rjw051.

Abstract

Intraosseous angiolipomas are very rare tumors occurring most commonly in the ribs and mandible. Only two cases with intracranial involvement have been reported in the literature. We report a case of a giant calvarial angiolipoma and its surgical treatment in a 30-year-old female who presented with a slowly expanding skull mass and discuss relevant radiological, histological and surgical findings.
