Meningioma Masquerading as Subacute Extradural Hematoma
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
An unknown male person of about 70years old was found unconscious on road side. CT scan of brain showed a slightly hyperdense biconvex extra axial lesion in left fronto-parietal region, suggestive of Subacute Extradural haematoma. Intraoperatively it was found to be a mass lesion for which excision was done. Histopathology report was Transitional Meningioma (WHO Grade-I). This case illustrates a rare presentation of Meningioma radiologically mimicking as subacute extradural haematoma leading to erroneous diagnosis.
