Papillary endothelial hyperplasia associated with repeated bleeding

Br J Neurosurg. 2005 Oct;19(5):428-31. doi: 10.1080/02688690500390383.

Abstract

We report a case of intracranial papillary endothelial hyperplasia (PEH) with subsequent haemorrhage and the possible pathogenesis of bleeding. PEH is a slow growing tumour and for rapid enlargement the process of haemorrhage may be necessary.
