Abstract
- A case of rare complication in preoperative embolization of intracranial meningioma is reported. A 42-year old man who was diagnosed as left parietal convexity meningioma underwent embolization of feeding vessels through the selective angiography. In the process of embolization of middle meningeal artery, after superficial temporal artery occlusion, there was sudden dye leakage around the tumor on the fluoroscopy suggesting the peritumoral bleeding. On the operation we could find the large hematoma around the mass. We are reporting this rare complication with the discussion of the possible etiology.
