Abstract
Haemorrhage in intracranial tumours is usually associated with malignant primary brain tumours or metastases and rarely with grade 1 meningiomas. We present the case of a 64-year-old woman, who presented acutely and was found to have a convexity meningioma with intratumoral and subdural haemorrhage. A review of the literature has been performed to look at all published cases of meningiomas with haemorrhages, particularly in relation to their subtypes.The association of meningiomas with different types of intracranial haemorrhage has been discussed. Various factors potentially responsible for haemorrhage and association with subtypes has also been discussed.
