Dorsal meningioma and subdural hematoma in a patient without risk factors for anticoagulation. Description of a very atypical case and review of the literature

We report a case of a 72-year-old woman without coagulation disorders with a dorsal meningioma at D9-D10 level admitted in our hospital for scheduled surgical treatment. While awaiting surgery she developed an acute neurological worsening due to a subdural hematoma and required urgent surgical evacuation. After the surgery, the patient had a complete neurological recovery. This is probably the first case reported in the literature of this presentation to date.
