[Nasal malignant meningioma].
Extracraneal meningiomas represent 2% of all meningiomas and can appear in different locations including paranasales sinuses. There are no statistics regarding ectopic malignant meningiomas, but they are considered extremely rare. Due to this, there is no management protocol. We present a patient with a malignant meningioma of the etmoidal sinus, his treatment and the evolution over a five year period.
