Abstract:
Intracranial extra-axial cavernous hemangioma of the cavernous sinus is a very rare vascular malformation. It usually appears as a round non-encapsulated mass with well-defined borders, mimicking meningioma. We describe a case of cavernous hemangioma of the cavernous sinus, including the radiologic imaging findings, and also review the literature.
