A case of a meningeal B-cell lymphoma is described. A 48-year-old man presented with an episode of grand mal seizure following a brain injury. An initial diagnosis of extradural hematoma was made based on the results of the cerebral computerized tomography scan. Magnetic resonance images demonstrated an enhanced mass with a dural tail attached to the meningeal layer of the temporal bone, suggesting a meningioma "en plaque". The mass was surgically excised. Tumoral removal was subcomplete (Simpson 2). Operative inspection also suggested a meningioma, but histological analysis and electron microscopy revealed a grade IV follicular B-cell lymphoma. Biological studies were normal. An extensive workup found an external iliac adenopathy with several osseous locations on PET. The patient underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Three years after the first symptoms appeared, the patient is alive and free of symptoms. The clinicopathological features and treatments were discussed.
