Using death and functional status as end points, we prospectively analyzed the outcome 6 months after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage in 166 patients admitted to an acute-care stroke unit on the first day of their stroke. Seventy-one patients (43%) died, 69 (42%) had a satisfactory outcome, and 26 (16%) had a poor functional outcome. Early (30-day) survival was correlated with morphologic ...

Intraventricular meningioma is a rare tumor with approximately 170 previously reported cases (1–7). Despite this it is the most common intraventricular tumor in adults, in whom it is most often located in the trigone of the lateral ventricle (1, 2). Computed tomography (CT) features are similar to meningiomas elsewhere, and in most cases they appear as well-defined high-attenuation masses that ...

Meningiomas causing intracranial hemorrhage are rare, and hemorrhage from a lateral ventricular meningioma seems to be even rarer. We report a case of trigonal meningioma in a 43-year-old woman who presented with intraventricular hemorrhage, and describe the CT, MRI and angiographic findings.
