Abstract Background The intracranial chondroma is a sporadic type of benign tumor with an incidence of less than 0.5% of all intracranial tumors. Furthermore, this type of tumor has been reported more frequently at the skull base, less at the falx cerebri, and exceptionally of the dura, when it happened to be intracranial. Case presentation We report a challenging diagnosis and the successful management of a rare case of intracranial dural chondroma in a 19-year-old student without past medical history, revealed by secondary epilepsy with behavioral and mood disorder without neurological deficit. Conclusion The dural origin of intracranial chondroma is a rare type of tumor with nonspecific clinical manifestations, and diagnosis confirmation requires a histopathological finding. Surgical gross total resection of the lesion is the golden standard of its management. |
