Abstract:
:A patient with a chronic encapsulated intracerebral haematoma presenting with medically intractable epilepsy is described. A tough capsule containing an old haematoma was confirmed surgically, and consisted of dense collagenous tissue with rich neovascularization. The radiological features, aetiology and treatment of this rare occurrence are discussed.

杂志文章abstract::A 24-year-old woman presented with a 7-week history of headache and left frontal scalp swelling. A plain radiograph and CT demonstrated a 2-cm lytic lesion in the frontal bone which was excised via craniotomy. Histology showed this to be an osteoma. Osteomas very rarely, if ever, appear as lytic lesions. The different...
