Abstract

A case of a malignant meningioma arising in the left parapharyngeal space in a 29-year-old woman is reported. Electron microscopic examination of the tumor was critical in establishing the diagnosis. Meningiomas of the parapharyngeal space are extremely rare. This constitutes the first malignant case documented in this location.
