Cutaneous Meningioma- A Rare Entity: Presenting as Local Metastasis

Summary: Cutaneous meningioma is a rare meningothelial neoplasm when occurring outside of cranial vault and spinal column • A meningioma can present in the skin as a primary lesion, a direct extension or a local metastasis from an underlying lesion in the meninges. • The tumor grows with a broadly infiltrative pattern into surrounding tissues with syncytial lobules of cells without distinct borders, consisting of a whorled architecture and round, regular nuclei with even nuclear chromatin and small nucleoli. • The diagnosis is made primarily on morphology with immunostains playing a supporting role in exclusion of other malignancies.
