| Abstract |
In this report we presented a case of an intracranial foreign body granuloma found in a 54-yearold female patient 10 year after she underwent a craniotomy for a right fronto-temporal convexity meningioma. While recurrence of meningioma is well known, foreign-body granuloma is a very rare intracranial mass lesion. Foreign body granuloma should be included in the differential diagnosis of previously operated recurrent intracranial masses. |
