Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head and cervical spine unexpectedly revealed a cervical meningioma in a patient who had suffered repeated episodes of subarachnoid hemorrhage. The importance of MRI in the diagnosis of tumors in patients with unusual clinical presentation is stressed.
