The meningioma constitutes 12 to 16 percent of all intracranial tumors. Generally, meningiomas arise from intracranial arachnoid villi and located intracranially. Extension of an intracranial meningioma onto the frontal and ethmoidal sinus occurs occassionally, but primary meningiomas of the frontal and ethmoidal sinus are extremely rare. The authors experienced a case of cystic, meningotheliomatous meningioma containing lamellated calcification involving of the lest frontal and ethmoidal sinus, which presented with protrusion of frontal bone and exophthalmos. In addition to our case, other types of extracranial meningioma are discussed with review of literature.

A patient with frontal sinus hypertrophy complained about an bossing in eyebrow region, increased width of the upper nasal pyramid, inferior displacement of the eyebrow and deep furrows in his forehead, etc. This case report illustrated a method of correction for frontal sinus hypertrophy. Surgery was performed via the bicoronal incision. After the anterior wall of the frontal sinus was removed, we tried a frontal bone remodeling by dividing it into three pieces, trimmming each piece at the margin and fixed with microplate. Bilateral thick bony portions around the frontal sinus were shaved with a surgical burr. At the same time, a 1cm-forehead lift and frontal muscle partial resection was performed. A satisfactory aesthetic result with a smooth and wide forehead could be obtained by employing this technique.

An en bloc bilateral osteotomy of the orbital roofs and frontal sinus for large or deeply situated anterior skull base tumors offers less brain retraction and a wide exposure. The authors describe en bloc bilateral osteotomy of the orbital roofs and frontal sinus, with skull base reconstruction using inner table of the patient's own frontal bone flap. The approach in this report offers the advantage of wide exposure, one-site operation and short operation time.

Frontal sinus fractures, particularly anterior sinus fractures, are relatively common facial fractures. Many agree on the general principles of frontal fracture management; however, the optimal methods of reduction are controversial. The subbrow approach enables accurate reduction and internal fixation of the fractures in the anterior table of the frontal sinus by allowing direct visualization of the fracture. Given the surgical success in reduction and rigid fixation, patient satisfaction, and aesthetic benefits, the transcutaneous approach through a subbrow incision is superior to other reduction techniques used in the management of an anterior table frontal sinus fracture.

Malignant Meningioma is rare and its initial clinical course tends to be short but otherwise indistinguishable from that of benign meningioma. And although it has been noted that many of them have propensities for invading the dural venous sinuses, the skull, and even extracranial tissues by direct spread, there seems little tendency for these to metastases. The changes of recurrence and eventual death are high in malignant meningioma. Recently we have experienced a case of malignant meningioma involving the right frontal bone and frontal lobe with infiltration to the adjacent structures.
