A report on a liposarcoma in the meninges of a 70‐year‐old woman is presented. Pre‐operative clinical and angiographic findings indicated that the tumour might be a meningeoma. Pathological examination revealed a predominantly lipoma‐like, well‐differentiated liposarcoma with round‐cell and pleomorphic areas. The angiographic and pathological differential diagnosis are discussed.
