An ectopic meningioma, such as a primary pulmonary meningioma (PPM), is a rare type of tumor that primarily originates outside of the central nervous system. A 65-year-old female patient underwent a thoracoscopic lung wedge resection of the right lower lobe for a micro solid nodule detected via computed tomography. The histologic result revealed a PPM. PPMs manifested with micro solid nodules are a very rare occurrence in clinical practice. Increased awareness of the clinical and pathological characteristics of this rare disease can assist thoracic surgical teams to apply adequate management.
