Misleading imaging features of intracranial dural plasmacytoma: report of two cases

Abstract

Dural plasmacytomas are very rare and often disregarded in the differential diagnosis of more common lesions of the convexity. We report two cases. Both patients exhibited headache as a main symptom. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance showed a homogeneously enhanced lesion without calcification and without bone involvement.
