Abstract
- A 37 year-old male was suffered from proptosis without visual loss for 5 months. The orbit CT scan showed an eyeball-sized, extraconal, intraorbital soft tissue mass. The mass was removed by modified Kronlein operation and was diagnosed as the transitional type of meningioma by light microscopic and electron microscopic findings. After, surgery, there is no recurrence after 6 months.
