| description | Rosai–Dorfman Disease (RDD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disease, and the occurrence of isolated
intracranial RDD is extremely rare. Most cases of intracranial RDDs present as dural masses
showing homogenous enhancement on MRI, which makes it difficult to differentiate these
masses from meningiomas before surgery unless massive cervical lymphadenopathy is observed.
We herein report a rare case of isolated intracranial RDD in a 65-year-old male. Brain
MRI revealed a well-defined enhancing mass-like lesion involving the right frontal convexity
and subtle diffusion restriction. However, only a subtle blush was observed on the preoperative
cerebral angiogram. Although instances of isolated intracranial RDD are rare, it should be considered
as a potential differential diagnosis when a dural mass with hypovascularity is visualized
on the cerebral angiogram. |
