Microparticulate embolization of meningiomas is a useful preoperative measure, but the potential risk of hemorrhagic complications should be recognized and balanced against the benefits. We report a case of subarachnoid hemorrhage occurring immediately after the embolization of a meningioma. Techniques for early diagnosis, such as CT, and early surgical intervention are crucial to a promising outcome. Large-size and necrotic or cystic components of a meningioma are probable risk factors that demand special consideration.
脑膜瘤的微粒栓塞术是一种有用的术前措施,但应认识到出血性并发症的潜在风险,并在益处与风险之间进行权衡。我们报告一例脑膜瘤栓塞术后立即发生蛛网膜下腔出血的病例。早期诊断技术,如CT,以及早期手术干预对于取得良好预后至关重要。脑膜瘤的大尺寸以及坏死或囊性成分可能是需要特别考虑的危险因素。
