Orbital meningioma is a rare neoplasm that, even when suspected by CT or echographic examination, requires careful histologic study for precise identification. Fine needle aspiration(FNA) biopsy has become the diagnostic technique of choice in recent years for investigating orbital masses. There have been a few previous reports on FNA biopsy of orbital menigioma. We experienced a case of orbital meningioma in a 11-yr-old boy, diagnosed by FNA biopsy. The cytohistologic features of aspirated material (intranuclear inclusions, psammoma bodies, and cells arranged in whorls) made it easy to diagnose a meningloma.

A 5-year-old, castrated male Yorkshire Terrier with strabismus and exophthalmos of the right eye was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Chungnam National University. Radiography, ultrasonography(US), computed tomography(CT) and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI), demonstrated a well-circumscribed, locally calcified mass of the retrobulbar region with contiguous bone structures invaded. Surgical removal of the adnexa, globe, optic nerve and the incorporated orbital neoplasm was performed. Primary orbital meningioma was confirmed by histopathologic examination.

Meningioma en plaque (MEP) is a rare tumor characterized more by its clinical and biological behavior than its histological appearance. Hyperostosis of the skull is one of the characteristic signs of MEP. This bony change can produce clinical symptoms and signs in MEP by pressing against adjacent structures. The authors report a rare case of an osteolytic MEP extending from the sphenoid wing into the orbital wall, middle fossa, and temporalis muscle.

Meningioma is usually known to occur stuck to the dura mater, but extradural meningioma occurs rarely. Most of the extradural meningiomas are located in the head and neck and we report a case of the primary intraosseous meningioma in the orbit. A 50-year old woman presented with the left eye hyperemia and exophthalmos. Neuroimaging modalities showed hyperostosis at the left sphenoid and orbital wall. On microscopic view, spindle cells and psammoma bodies between the woven bones were observed. The origin of the intraosseous meningioma is explained with various potent possibilities and differential diagnosis thoroughly explored.
