title: Intracranial hemorrhage associated with meningioma.
abstract: Intracranial hemorrhage developed in two patients with meningioma without other apparent risk factors predisposing to hemorrhage. Bleeding has been reported to be associated with meningiomas regardless of the sex or age of the patient or the location of histological nature of the tumor. It can occur acutely without antecedent symptoms, often masking the tumor. The mechanism of hemorrhage is not clear. The complication has not been emphasized in the neurological literature and, although rare, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of intracranial hemorrhage.
