Prolonged cerebral "luxury perfusion" after removal of a convexity meningioma
Surgical Neurology
|April 1, 1979
Abstract:
Following total removal of a convexity meningioma, serial computerized tomographic scans disclosed massive hemispheric contrast enhancement compatible with "luxury perfusion". Maximum enhancement occurred one month following the operation and resolved two months postoperatively. Luxury perfusion appeared to be associated with slowly resolving cerebral edema.
