Chronic Epidural Haematoma Mimicking A Convexity Meningioma
Keywords:
craniocerebral trauma, chronic epidural hematoma, convexity meningioma, computerized tomography, x-rayAbstract
Chronic extradural hematoma is a rare condition. In this research, a case of chronic extradural hematoma is reported, drawing attention to the difficult diagnostic clarification with extra-axial lesions of the cerebral convexity. The importance of simple skull X-rays to help elucidate the etiology is highlighted.
