Abstract
✓ Extravasation of contrast material during angiography in a head-injured patient was shown at operation to have occurred because of a fistula between a lacerated meningeal artery and the diploic spaces within the skull. Usually such extravasation is regarded as diagnostic evidence of an epidural or subdural hematoma, as had been suggested erroneously by the angiogram in this case.Keywords
