Authors reported an autopsy case of extracere-bral cavernous hemangioma in the middle fossa and discussed the effect of irradiation therapy on it.

A 72-year-old woman was admitted due to pro-gressive deterioration of consciousness and the right hemiparesis. CT scan revealed a slightly high den-sity mass, which was markedly heterogeneously enhanced with contrast media, in the left middle cranial fossa. Angiogram with prolonged injection demostrated a faint tumor stain. Craniectomy and partial temporal lobectomy for decompression were performed, but the tumor could not be removed due to uncontrollable hemorrhage. Her level of con-sciousness further deteriorated, and in addition heart failure developed. And finally she became vegetative in spite of effective irradiation therapy of 46Gy. CT scan taken three months and seven years after the irradiation showed marked regression of the tumor.
