Remote intracranial parenchymal hemorrhage in susceptibility-weighted imaging

摘要

A 45-year-old female presented to hospital with blurred vision and left homonymous hemianopia. MRI showed an extraaxial mass lesion over right occipital region. The patient underwent resection of the mass, which revealed a meningioma. She tolerated the procedure well. During the following post-operation MRI, susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) showed curvilinear hypointense signal intensity over left cerebellum and left temporal base suggestive of remote intracranial parenchymal hemorrhage (Figure 1). No underlying lesion was identified. The further post-operative course was uneventful and the patient discharged smoothly.
