## TL;DR

This paper reports a rare case of papillary meningioma with unique MRI features that helped improve surgical outcomes.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in highlighting the rare presentation of papillary meningioma with prominent flow voids and increased perfusion on MRI.

## Key findings

- Prominent flow voids and increased perfusion on MRI were observed in a case of papillary meningioma.
- These MRI features aided in minimizing intra-operative blood loss and achieving a favorable outcome.
- The case highlights the importance of recognizing atypical features for better management and prognosis.

## Abstract

This report presents an extremely rare case of papillary meningioma with prominent flow voids and increased perfusion parameters on MRI in a 28-year-old male presenting with headache. This knowledge helped the neurosurgeon to minimise intra-operative blood loss and achieve a favourable post-surgical outcome.

A rare case of papillary meningioma and its differentiating features from typical meningiomas have been discussed considering its implications for management as well as prognostication to reduce morbidity and mortality.
