Abstract: | A case of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage from an occipital ependymoma grade 2 in a 3-month-old boy is reported. The infant died 3 days after surgery. The clinical and pathomorphological characteristics are described. Despite the usually rich vascularization of these tumors, hemorrhages from inracranial ependymomas are relatively uncommon. The different forms and probable cause of bleedings are discussed. |
