A 45-year-old female patient underwent Simpson grade I excision of her posterior parasagittal meningioma (Figure 1 A and B). Immediate post-operative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) brain revealed gross total tumor excision without any evidence of hematoma (Figure 1 C). C and S were negative. CT brain was obtained which revealed severe diffuse cerebral edema along with parieto-occipital acute infarct (Figure 1 D, E and F).
