The case of a 57-year-old woman with a calcified metastatic brain tumor, histologically confirmed to be a squamous cell carcinoma, is reported. This patient is unusual because this metastatic squamous cell carcinoma contained an extraordinary huge conglomerated calcification, that was well-defined radiographically. This case is documented with a discussion of the pathogenesis of the calcification.

D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.
