Typical expansile mass in the skull vault with "sunray" trabecular pattern seen nicely on the axial slice.
Case Discussion
These lesions are benign and an incidental finding that should not be confused with a metastatic lesion (will not have a sunray appearance) or Paget disease (starts at the skull base, not the vertex as in most hemangiomas).
