A Rare Case of Life-Threatening Multicompartmental Spontaneous Intracranial Hemorrhage From a Grade 1 Convexity Meningioma.

Meningiomas are slowly growing benign tumors. The incidence of hemorrhage associated with intracranial meningiomas is in the 0.5%-2.4% range. However, intracranial meningiomas with hemorrhagic presentation are associated with higher rates of overall major morbidity (36%) and mortality (21.1%). We report a case of a convexity meningioma presenting with intraparenchymal hematoma and bilateral acute subdural hematomas (SDH) in a comatose patient (Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score: 7) who had a history of recurrent episodes of headaches over the past few months. Hemorrhagic presentation of a meningioma is a rare but potentially devastating event. Early recognition of the potential underlying meningioma as a cause of bleeding followed by rapid appropriate additional imaging is crucial to direct treatment plans to achieve the best outcome.
