An 83-year-old male with a history of tension-type headaches was evaluated. He was conscious with no focal neurological deficits. His brain MRI revealed an enhancable bifrontal tumor originating from falx cerebri and superior sagittal sinus dura. Due to the patient's preference and decline for gross total resection, she underwent a stereotactic biopsy. The pathology was positive for Rosai-Dorfman diseases. He received definitive targeted radiation with a total dose of 4500 cGy administered in 200 cGy daily fractions. His 4-year follow-up showed regional tumor control with excellent neurological outcome.
