Unoperated giant cerebellar hematoma: Case report

The treatment of patients with spontaneous intracerebellar hematoma (SIH) still remains controversial. Computerized tomography (CT) offers early and accurate diagnosis of SIH, the size and location of SIH can be precisely defined. The main prognostic factors affecting the outcome are the clinical state of the patient on admission, the size and localization of the hematoma, compression of brain-stem, and the presence of intraventricular hematoma and hydrocephalus. In this report, a 62 year old female patient with a giant cerebellar hematoma who was treated medically was presented.
