RESUMEN
Remote cerebellar hemorrhage (RCH) is a rare complication following supratentorial craniotomies with unclear pathophysiology, predisposing factors, and clinical outcomes. This is a case of a 46-year-old female who presented to the emergency room with a complaint of severe headache associated with nausea. MRI studies demonstrated right frontal lesions consistent with low-grade glioma. She underwent a right frontal craniotomy, and the tumor was resected successfully. She developed a severe headache on postoperative day five, and CT scans showed ipsilateral cerebellar hematoma. She was managed conservatively and made a complete recovery within five days. Although rare, RCH requires prompt recognition, neurological monitoring, and management. Medical management and observation may be considered for patients without mass effect or acute hydrocephalus.
