Description
Summary:	A 67-year-old male presented with a left temporal convexity vacuolated meningioma associated with acute subdural hematoma manifesting as sudden headache, nausea, and vomiting without neurological deficit. Magnetic resonance imaging disclosed an extra-axial mass as mixed low and high-signal intensities and a crescent high-intensity area in the left convexity. Histological examination diagnosed meningotheliomatous meningioma with vacuolated components and hemorrhagic foci. The tumor and hematoma were removed without postoperative complications.
