Popis: Diagnostics of brain tumours still remains a serious problem in neurologist's career. Difficulties in proper diagnosing refer mainly to endocranial tumours with atypical clinical course. Frequency of brain tumours' vascular manifestation is assessed as 1-4%, and in most cases it is the kind of manifestation which corresponds with intracerebral bleedings and more seldom with ischaemic strokes. Reports on brain tumours with developments similar to transient brain ischaemia (1, 2, 3, 4) are published occasionally. In Neurology Clinic of the Medical Academy in Lublin, we conducted observation of two patients with brain tumours (one metastatic and the other one-primary), where the former as well as the latter case were treated as cerebral circulation failures at their initial stage. Application of typical vasoactive treatment brought about temporary regression of symptoms.
