The head tomography scan revealed an intraparenchimatous bleeding in the left parietal area, under the entry zone, with gas density inside the hemorrhage [Figure 3]; the calculated volume was about 60 cm3 with deviation of the midline elements. The high temperature leaves the accumulation of gas density in to the hematoma [Figure 3].
