Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (JPOF) is a benign fibroosseous lesion predominantly arising within the paranasal sinuses in children and young adults. Neurocranial occurrence is exceedingly rare and a location within the neurocranial portion of the temporal bone has not been described. The authors report on one case of sinonasal JPOF secondarily extending into the cranial cavity and three cases primarily affecting the neurocranial bones to increase clinical awareness of this uncommon tumor, which may be easily mistaken for meningioma. Moreover, the absence of activating missense mutations of the GNAS1 gene in two cases strongly argues against a relationship between JPOF and fibrous dysplasia.
