Abstract
Meningiomas are the most common benign brain tumors, and most of them originate from the dura mater. However, in some cases, they can originate from the choroid plexus, and they are rarely found in the posterior cranial fossa. A 63-year-old female patient presented with dizziness and swallowing diffi- culty and was found to have a homogeneously enhancing mass in the right posterior cranial fossa. Mass removal was performed through retrosigmoid suboccipital craniotomy, and the mass was con- firmed to originate from the choroid plexus. The pathological diagnosis was meningothelial meningioma. The patient had temporary swallowing difficulty but recovered without any neurological sequelae. We report a rare case of a lower cerebellopontine angle meningioma without dural attachment originating from the choroid plexus of the foramen of Luschka
