Meningiomas are slow growing, extra-axial lesions, and can be neurologically silent for a long time and present only with depression. ⋯ Total resection of convexity meningioma and decompression of the brain tissue in the region of limbic pathways that are involved, may contribute to a complete remission of depression symptoms. This case also illustrates the need for a prompt neuroimaging of the brain when patients present any atypical psychiatric symptoms, with late onset (> 50 years old) of the first depressive episode or fast changes of the mental state.
