Meningiomas Can Present as Intracranial Hemorrhage in Rare Cases: A Case Report of a Patient With a History of Minor Trauma and Massive Intracranial Hemorrhage.

Meningiomas are relatively common intracranial tumors. While typically discovered incidentally or related to symptoms from regional mass effect, on rare occasions, they can present as acute intracranial hemorrhage. We report a case of a 62-year-old male who presented with significant acute intracranial hemorrhage with a history of minor trauma. Imaging workup demonstrated a hemorrhagic mass to be the likely cause of the hemorrhage. Upon resection of the mass, pathology demonstrated meningioma. It is important to thoroughly investigate intracranial hemorrhage, particularly when it appears out of proportion to any known causative event, in order to accurately diagnose, manage, and treat these patients.
