Description
Summary:Highlights • Rosai–Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare histioproliferative disorder. • Diagnosis and treatment of five patients with intracranial RDD are presented. • Patients were treated by total or subtotal surgical resection and none experienced recurrence. • Preoperative diagnosis of the dural-based lesion can be challenging, as it can mimic a meningioma. • Surgical resection is effective, however radiotherapy, steroid and chemotherapy have not demonstrated therapeutic efficacy.
