Encapsulated intracerebral hematomas are rare, often caused by vascular malformations in young adults. These lesions present with a distinct capsule and gradual onset, requiring careful diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Encapsulated intracerebral hematoma is an uncommon neurological entity.
  • Characterized by a well-defined capsule, gradual clinical onset, and association with vascular malformations.

Observation:

  • Review of 26 cases (1 presented, 25 reviewed) with a mean age of 35 years and male predominance.
  • Computed tomography (CT) reveals contrast enhancement, mass effect, and perifocal edema.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings are described for the first time.

Findings:

  • Vascular malformations confirmed histologically in 12 of 26 cases.
  • In 14 cases, no definitive cause was found, but ruptured vascular malformations are suspected.
  • The entity typically occurs in normotensive patients.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of recognizing encapsulated intracerebral hematomas.
  • Suggests vascular malformations as a primary etiology, even when not immediately apparent.
  • Emphasizes the role of advanced imaging (CT/MRI) in diagnosis.
