Abstract

Medulloblastomas are categorized as the World Health Organization Grade IV neoplasms. Only 33 cases have been reported of extra-axial, mostly in the cerebellar pontine angle and lateral cerebellar hemisphere, medulloblastomas in the current literature. Our study showcases the first case of an extremely rare presentation of an extra-axial midline tentorial adult medulloblastoma with the dural-tail sign mimicking a meningioma. To achieve the best possible outcome, a high index of suspicion for medulloblastoma is critical especially in young patient with an atypical posterior fossa mass as treatment regimens drastically different between a medulloblastoma and a meningioma.
