Discussion Remote cerebellar hemmorrhage

* Complication of neurosurgical procedures
- Most often after fronto-temporal or frontal craniotomies
- Aneurysm clipping
- Temporal lobectomy
- Tumor resection
- Hematoma evacuation
* Pathophysiology
1) Supratentorial procedures that involve opening of cisterns or ventricular systems => CSF hypovolemia => Cerebellar sagging => Transient occlusion of the superior bridging veins of the posterior fossa => Hemorrhagic infarction
2) Negative suctioning => Postoperative over-drainage => Downward displacement of
the cerebellum => Tearing of the superior cerebellar vein & tributaries
* Can occur contralateral or ipsilateral to the site of craniotomy
* Self-limiting phenomenon that should not be mistaken for more ominous pathologic findings
* Imaging features
“Zebra sign”
: Locations
- Sublocation in cerebellar vermis
- Subarachnoid +/- superficial parenchymal bleed
 Contralateral to side of surgery (29%)
 Ipsilateral (22%)
 Bilateral (33%)
 Isolated vermian (9%)
