Atypical presentation of an extradural hematoma on the grounds of a temporal arachnoid cyst.

abstract：BACKGROUND:While intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IOM) for intramedullary tumors has become a standard in neurosurgical practice, IOM for intradural extramedullary tumors (IDEMs) is still under debate. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of IOM during surgery for IDEMs. METHODS:From March 2008 t...
