Popis: |
Intracranial angiomatous meningioma (AM) is a rare meningioma subtype. Hemorrhage is a rare meningioma-related complication that can occur spontaneously. Therefore, this specific medical condition is rarely described in the literature. We describe a rare case of a 65 year's old female with repeated focal left upper limb epileptic attacks and no history or evidence of neoplasms, trauma, or coagulopathy. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography (MRI and CT, respectively) are early and accurate diagnostic tools that reveal an intracerebral hemorrhage from a right occipital meningioma. She was treated by surgical resection. The diagnosis was confirmed based on the pathological analysis of the resected tumor that was reported as an AM. |
