Abstract:
We report two cases of cranial metastasis hepatocellular carcinomas in young adults of their early 30s, with intracerebral hemorrhage. Both patients experienced minor head trauma several days before the onset of neurological deterioration. Detailed description of cases and review of the relevant literatures are presented with emphasis on the presumptive role of minor head trauma and pertinent magnetic resonance features.
