Popis: | Recent reports have highlighted the unusual complication of distant cerebellar haemorrhage after supratentorial craniotomy, with only 25 previous cases reported in the literature. Nearly all reported cases occurred after craniotomy for temporal lobectomy or for deep seated intracerebral pathology requiring brain retraction and removal of CSF at surgery. Only one previous case of a cerebellar haemorrhage after evacuation of an extracerebral fluid collection has been reported. We describe the case of a cerebellar haemorrhage complicating the evacuation of an acute/subacute supratentorial subdural haematoma in a 83-year-old woman. The literature is reviewed and possible mechanisms of haemorrhage discussed. |
