Six months later, a de novo dura-based mass with peripheral edema, which was assumed to be an aggressive metachronous meningioma, developed in the middle cranial fossa. The patient underwent frontotemporal craniotomy for complete resection of the lesion, and subsequent histological examination revealed an aspergilloma.
