Abstract
Introduction: Dural calcification is most observed in older adults. However, idiopathic extensive dural calcification is rare in young individuals, often raising concerns for potential underlying secondary diseases or disorders. Dural calcification is typically categorized into physiological (age-related and idiopathic) and pathological types (associated with underlying conditions) linked to metabolic and genetic factors. Case Report: We report distinctive idiopathic extensive dural calcification in an asymptomatic young adult female with no known pathological or metabolic predispositions. Conclusion: The presence of this condition in young, healthy adults without any identifiable etiologies is exceptionally uncommon. This case represents a rare instance of such extensive dural calcification in a healthy young adult, contributing a unique addition to the medical literature on this rare entity.
