Abstract
We present the CT and MR features of a rare intracranial lipoma located in the right sylvian fissure in a patient who presented with a five-year history of headache. The lesion was well demonstrated on Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR), Turbo Spin Echo (TSE), T1 weighted and fat supressed T2 weighted sequences.
