Primary dural lymphoma: Case report.

Primary Dural lymphoma (PDL) is a rare pathology that occurs in immunocompetent patients. In such cases, these lesions may mimic more common intracranial tumors. We present the case of a patient who presented an intra cranial hypertension syndrome; the brain MRI showed a tissular mass that we took for a meningioma; upon surgical intervention, an occult mass was discovered.

A cerebellopontine angle metastatis of a male breast cancer: Case report.

Male breast cancer is rare, less than 1% of men's cancers. The tumors occurring in the cerebellopontine angle remain a rare entity. Features suggestive of metastasis are acute onset, rapid progression of symptoms.

Contralateral epidural hematoma after decompressive surgery: Case report and systematic literature review.

Introduction: and importance: Contralateral epidural hematoma (EDH) after decompressive surgery for acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) is uncommon. If unrecognized, this delayed hematoma can lead to devastating consequences.

Case Presentation: A 30-year-old patient with no past medical history, was brought to the emergency after a severe brain injury secondary to an aggression, Glasgow coma scale was 6 (E1V1 M4) with a left anisocoria.

Controlateral epidural hematoma after VP shunt: A case report.

Cerebrospinal fluid over-drainage is a common complication of ventriculoperitoneal devices (Ventriculoperitoneal shunt). In terms of hemorrhage, subdural hematomas are usually more frequent lesions than epidural hematomas, which, more rarely, may also be seen after ventricular shunt procedures and may lead to rapid neurological decline and even death unless a surgical procedure can be promptly performed. In our study we report the case of a 5 years old boy with history of congenital obstructive hydrocephalus treated with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt insertion when he was 8 months old.
