Abstract

The authors describe a rare case of primary extradural ectopic meningioma of the orbit in a 13-year-old female managed with surgical excision, adding to the very limited literature of this diagnosis in children. This is the second case to show a radiological abnormality in the gyrus rectus and olfactory bulb; however, in our case, there was no radiological evidence of connection seen.<br />Competing Interests: The authors have no financial or conflicts of interest to disclose.<br /> (Copyright © 2022 The American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Inc.)
