Abstract:
Primary sarcomas of the central nervous system and their coincidence with a subdural haematoma are each rare. We describe an unusual case of unsuspected dural spreading of a recurrent spindle cell sarcoma concealed in a chronic subdural haematoma, which occurred months after microsurgical resection and external radiation of a temporal parenchymatous sarcoma.
