Abstract
|
|
|
|
Hemorrhage from meningioma is rarely reported. We report one patient with intratumoral hemorrhage with meningioma. A 43-year-old women presented with severe headache and right hemiparesis. Brain computed tomography and magnetic resonance images revealed a mass lesion with intratumoral hemorrhage in the left frontal lobe. Total removal of the tumor and hematoma could be achieved. The patient recovered uneventfully after the operation. Histologic findings are considered to be a atypical meningioma. The Ki-67 labelling index was high, which is considered proliferative property of meningioma. We review the relevant literature and discuss the possible mechanism of intratumoral hemorrhage in the meningioma.
