Pachymeningitis is a rare condition in children with potentially severe disabling neurological consequences. It's characterized by chronic inflammation causing thickening of the dura. We report here a 12 year-old-girl who presented with acute headache and confusion. Brain MRI showed diffuse nodular pachymeningitis. All etiological investigations were normal. After a follow up of 12 months, the patient remained asymptomatic without any neurological deficits.Downloads
