Solitary fibrous tumours are rare mesenchymal spindle-cell tumours that occur most often in the visceral pleura or liver. If they occur intracranially, they are extra-axially located and develop from the meninges. In those cases, the differential diagnosis has to be made with other intracranial extra-axial-located tumours, such as meningeoma and hemangiopericytoma. We report a 32-year-old woman with an intracranial solitary fibrous tumour and review the latest literature regarding the imaging characteristics of this tumour.
