Abstract

A 48-year old woman was presented with confusion, haedache and mild right hemiparesia. Computerise Tomogrphy(CT) scan showed meningioma associated left fronto-parietal acute and crhonic subdural haematoma(SDH). Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) revealed a parasaggital tumour with ipsilateral acute and chronic SDH. Emergent craniotomy was performed and meningioma with SDH was removed. The operative and histological findings indicated that the tumoral tissue was the source of SDH.
