Abstract
The neuroradiological features of meningioangiomatosis (MA) are non-specific. We report a young man with sporadic MA. The plain computerized tomography (CT) demonstrated a deep located right cystic lesion without calcification. On magnetic resonance imaging, the cystic mass lesion was confirmed with a mural nodule with significant enhancement on contrast-enhanced images.
