Abstract

The authors present a case of an intracranial tumor in a 7-year-old girl leading to increasing hemiparesis. The lesion arose from the dura and consisted of fibroblasts in a myxoid matrix. The diagnosis of cranial fasciitis was made. The histological, immunohistological, and ultrastructural features of the tumor are described and the differential diagnosis is discussed.
