This case report presents a unique instance of Masson's tumor, highlighting its atypical presentation and diagnostic challenges. A 19-year-old male patient underwent cranioplasty surgery after presenting with swelling on the frontal scalp. No history of trauma was reported. We compared the preoperative and postoperative results and diagnosed an intracranial Masson's tumor pathologically, which was not detected radiologically. Ensuring complete excision of Masson's tumor stands as the foremost imperative for averting relapse, underscoring the significance of meticulous attention to the aesthetic outcome in cases undergoing concurrent cranioplasty surgery. By elucidating the correlation between the tumor and the patient's symptoms, this report contributes valuable insights into the clinical manifestations and management of this rare intracranial pathology. This addition to the scientific literature underscores the importance of comprehensive evaluation and tailored therapeutic approaches for such cases, ultimately enriching our understanding of Masson's tumor and its clinical implications.
