Cerebellar astrocytoma presenting as a cerebellar hemorrhage in a child

Frederick M. Vincent, M. D., John R. Bartone, M. D. and Margaret Z. Jones, M. D.

Departments of Pathology (Drs. Vincent and Jones) and Medicine (Dr. Vincent), Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, East Lansing, MI, and The Munson Medical Center (Drs. Vincent and Bartone), Traverse City, MI.

An acute cerebellar hemorrhage in a 14-year-old girl was found to be caused by bleeding that had occurred in an occult cerebellar astrocytoma. Such symptomatic hemorrhage into tumors, whether of metastatic or primary brain origin, occurs rarely but must be considered in patients of all ages who present with atypical strokes of presumed hemorrhagic etiology.

Address correspondence and reprint requests to Dr. Vincent, 211 Beaumont Place, Traverse City, MI 49684.

Accepted for publication June 11, 1979.
