A case of endotheliomatous type of meningioma arising from the falx and dura of the left anterior cranial fossa is reported. Numerous Rosenthal fibres were observed in the gliotic tissue around the meningioma. Authors present a brief data about the nature and accurrence of Rosenthal fibres. The occurrence of the pilocytic astrocytes and Rosenthal fibres in the gliotic tissue around slow-growing falx meningioma is an additional evidence for a peculiar type of changes in astrocytes of the long-standing gliosis of piloid type.
