Axial T1 postcontrast MRI shows a large meningioma (arrow, image 1) near the vertex. More inferiorly (image 2), there is also a meningioma at the base of the skull at the sella (arrow, image 2). A large right vestibular schwannoma (arrowhead) is also present. Neurofibromatosis type II is associated with multiple schwannomas, meningiomas, and ependymomas. Meningiomas can cause cortical thickening and irregularity. #FridayQuizDay #FridayQuiz

Cases
Axial (image 1) and sagittal (image 2) head CT shows a hyperdense 4th ventricular mass (arrow). What is your presumed diagnosis?](https://app.figure1.com/case-detail/1cddfa55-fca2-4fbf-ac77-d032d8835b16)
Coronal FLAIR (image 1) and axial T2-weighted (image 2) MRI show a large, open-lipped schizencephaly (arrow) accompanied by a bifrontal arachnoid cyst (arrowhead) and absence of the septum pellucidum. Schizencephaly can be differentiated from porencephalic cysts by the presence of gray matter lining the cleft. The term 'open-lipped' describes when the cleft walls are separated and filled with cerebrospinal fluid.](https://app.figure1.com/case-detail/1e456b44-34c0-4a16-b371-387cd84fa49d)
Coronal T1-weighted image (image 1) shows a meningioma (arrow) at the right cerebellar pontine angle. After contrast was administered (image 2), there is diffuse enhancement of the lesion with minimal thickening and irregularity of the adjacent petro clival ligament and lateral margin of the right tentorium. Enhancing cerebellar pontine angle masses typically represent either a vestibular schwannoma or a meningioma. While this is the most common location for a meningioma in the posterior fossa, vestibular schwannomas are more common.](https://app.figure1.com/case-detail/36bdf40e-4995-46a9-8ad6-7d4a3dba7f3d)
