    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Neurology
    • Canine Pathology
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Intracranial tumors are a significant concern in canine medicine.
    • Meningiomas represent a common type of primary brain tumor in dogs.
    • Meningiothelial meningiomas are a specific subtype, with ossification being a rare feature.

    Observation:

    • A 9-year-old Labrador presented with clinical signs indicative of an intracranial mass.
    • Diagnostic imaging revealed an intracranial lesion.
    • The patient's history and clinical presentation were documented.

    Findings:

    • Pathological examination confirmed a meningiothelial meningioma.
    • Focal ossification was a distinct characteristic of the tumor.
    • The tumor's location and extent were detailed.

    Implications:

    • This case contributes to the understanding of rare intracranial tumors in dogs.
    • It underscores the importance of thorough histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.
    • Findings may inform future diagnostic and treatment strategies for similar canine brain tumors.
