Résumé
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare idiopathic benign proliferative disorder of histiocytes, predominantly affecting the lymph nodes. RDD can also present in extranodal tissues and is occasionally found within the central nervous system. We report the case of a 52-year-old man presenting with a short episode of dizziness. Imaging identified a right frontal, extraaxial, dural-based lesion, suspicious for a meningioma. The patient underwent a craniotomy for tumor resection and, although not entirely typical, the pathology was consistent with RDD. No other evidence of RDD was identified. RDD should be considered as a differential diagnosis of dural-based lesions, more commonly meningiomas.

BACKGROUND
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare idiopathic benign proliferative disorder of histiocytes, predominantly affecting the lymph nodes. RDD can also present in extranodal tissues and is occasionally found within the central nervous system.
CASE DESCRIPTION
We report the case of a 52-year-old man presenting with a short episode of dizziness. Imaging identified a right frontal, extraaxial, dural-based lesion, suspicious for a meningioma. The patient underwent a craniotomy for tumor resection and, although not entirely typical, the pathology was consistent with RDD. No other evidence of RDD was identified.
CONCLUSIONS
RDD should be considered as a differential diagnosis of dural-based lesions, more commonly meningiomas.
