We report the first case of extensive involvement of isolated intracranial Rosai-Dorfmans disease (RDD) in a child.Our case is unique because it presents with involvement of the middle cranial fossa, cavernous sinus, pituitary gland, orbit, ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses.Previous cases of intracranial RDD in children have reported separate involvement of cavernous sinus, suprasellar region, and frontal and petroclival regions.Involvement of the pituitary gland has so far not been reported.A 14-year-old male presented with a medical history of loss of vision, raised erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and abnormal prolactin and cortisol levels.Radiologically the diagnosis was meningioma.The histopathological diagnosis was RDD with emperipolesis and S-100 positivity.
