Magnetic resonance imaging and biopsy showed a right sphenoid-orbital meningioma. The tumor was excised and the patient symptomatically improved. Patient had gross tumor reduction for right sphenoidal orbital extra-axial brain tumor with hyperostosis of the lateral wall of the orbit and sphenoidal ridge.
