BACKGROUND
Superficial haemosiderosis of the central nervous system (SHCNS) is an infrequent clinical entity; it is produced by the formation of clinically silent haemosiderin deposits in the leptomeninges, the subpial tissue, the cranial nerves and spinal cord, secondary to chronic bleeding in the
A case of intradural extramedullary cavernous angioma is presented with headache, dizziness, and bilateral sensorineural hearing loss caused by an intracranial superficial hemosiderosis. It was incidentally found in a patient with a 3-month history of sustained headache, dizziness and a 3-year
This report describes the clinical, radiological, microscopical and ligandohistochemical findings in a 17-year-old woman who suffered from an acute onset of pulmonary hemosiderosis after inhalation of pesticides used for the cultivation of strawberries.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) are rare cerebrovascular pathologies. Here, we report the extremely rare coincidental presentation of both entities and discuss the likely relationship in aetiology and their optimal management. A female patient presented

BACKGROUND
Convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH) is a rare type of spontaneous, non-traumatic, and nonaneurysmal SAH characterised by blood collections in one or more cortical sulci in the convexity of the brain; the aetiology varies. We report a clinical case series of 3 patients with cSAH
In this review article the clinical manifestations, imaging findings, diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for intracranial hypotension are described. The typical manifestation, orthostatic headache, may sometimes be masked by atypical manifestations including coma, frontotemporal dementia and
OBJECTIVE
To illustrate clinical presentations, imaging findings, and diagnostic and therapeutic approaches associated with various conditions of intracranial hypotension.
RESULTS

OBJECTIVE
Isolated, non-traumatic, cortical subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH) is a rare type of cerebrovascular disease caused by various disorders. In a few cases, especially in the elderly, no apparent cause can be identified. We report a case series of patients without apparent cause of cSAH. We
BACKGROUND
Clinical presentation and etiology of localized nontraumatic convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) have been described in a few patients. They differ from those of aneurysmal subarachnoid bleeding which is diffuse. The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical presentation, the
BACKGROUND
Atraumatic and nonaneurysmal sulcal subarachnoid hemorrhage (sSAH) is a rare type of cerebrovascular disease with various etiologies previously reported in small case reports. In this study, we propose to analyze clinical presentations, imaging patterns and etiologies in a large case
