We reported two cases of the anterior cranial fossa meningiomas: cerebral falx meningioma and recurrence of olfactory groove meningioma. Since the tumors grow very slowly, they remain clinically undetectable during the early stages and can reach a very large size. Clinical manifestations are caused by pression of meningiomas on adjacent structures. The authors present possibilities of radiological examinations of intracranial tumors and treatment management. In the described cases meningiomas were diagnosed in CT examination with the use of angio option and reconstruction RT3D and MPR.
