Meningiomas should be considered as a possible diagnosis when dealing with tumors of the head and neck, even though these lesions may be located outside the cranial cavity. We report three patients who harbored primary ectopic epidural meningioma arising in the right occipital, parietal and left frontal region protruding extracranially through destructed calvarium and also developing intracranially without dural involvement. The diagnostic value of CT scan is emphasized and the relevant literature on ectopic meningioma is reviewed.
在处理头颈部肿瘤时，即使这些病变可能位于颅腔外，也应将脑膜瘤视为一种可能的诊断。我们报告了3例原发性异位硬膜外脑膜瘤患者，肿瘤分别起源于右枕叶、顶叶和左额叶，通过破坏的颅骨向颅外突出，并且在颅内也有发展，但未累及硬脑膜。强调了CT扫描的诊断价值，并回顾了有关异位脑膜瘤的相关文献。
