Descripción
Sumario:Remote cerebellar hemorrhage as a rare complication of supratentorial surgery was already first described in the 1970s by Yasargil. Its incidence ranges from 0.2% to 0.4% after supratentorial craniotomies. Although its incidence is low, the volume of reports with remote cerebellar hemorrhage in the literature has been growing in recent times. The authors report here a new case of a controlateral remote cerebellar hemorrhage after 24 hours of supratentorial craniotomy for a solitary brain metastasis of a pulmonary adenocarcinoma in a 59 year-old male patient with unbalanced high blood pressure.
