[Intradiploic cavernous hemangioma of the calvaria: case report and review of the literature].
We report the case of a 31-year-old patient who had had frontal cephalalgias for several years. CT and MRI anatomical imaging objectified a frontal osteolytic tumor respecting the osseous external table but compressing the superior sagittal sinus. Total en bloc resection of the tumor associated with titan cranioplasty was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful. Three months after surgery the patient no longer reported headache. The anatomical and pathological results concluded in intradiploic cavernous hemangioma. We discuss this case and others described in the literature.
