Primary intraosseous meningioma (PIM) is a rare form of meningioma, a benign lesion of the meninges. Imaging evaluation of a patient with frontoparietal scalp swelling revealed an osteoblastic intracalvarial lesion. Following surgical resection, the histological examination revealed an intra-osseous meningioma.
