A patient with neurofibromatosis 1 and childhood ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt insertion for hydrocephalus presented with 4 weeks of short-term and working memory impairment. Apart from right-hand tremor, he denied headache, visual changes, weakness and dyscoordination. A CT head showed a right-sided subdural lesion with 22 mm midline shift. The MRI head showed a right inferior-frontal enhancing mass suspicious of high-grade glioma and right extensively calcified subdural extra-axial collection, with mixed heterogeneous predominantly T1-hyperintense contents (figure 1A).

(A) Preoperative MRI shows a right inferior frontal mass suspicious of high-grade glioma and the extra-axial collection with mixed heterogeneous predominantly T1-hyperintense contents, and extensive calcification. (B) Postoperative MRI showing more than 90% debulking of the enhancing tumour (glioblastoma, WHO grade IV) and the right subdural evacuation.
He underwent right fronto-temporo-parietal craniotomy with chronic calcified subdural haematoma evacuation, right frontal mass resection plus duraplasty (figure...
