Delayed extradural hematoma: a case report.

Three patients of delayed extradural hematoma (EDH) were seen in the last one year among forty eight consecutively treated cases of EDH. All the three hematomas were evacuated. Awareness of this entity and a high degree of vigilance are strongly recommended to detect such cases. Repeat CT should always be done, especially after decompression by either surgical or medical means, recovery from shock or whenever there is evidence of even minimal bleeding under a skull fracture on initial CT scan.

Giant cell reparative granuloma of the craniofacial complex: case report and review of the literature.

Giant cell reparative granuloma (GCRG) is an infrequent non-tumoural lesion affecting particularly the maxillary and mandibular bones and only rarely the cranial bones. The pathogenesis is still controversial and the differential diagnosis, especially from giant cell tumours of bone, is difficult. A case of GCRG of the sphenoid masquerading as an intracranial tumour is reported here. The relevant literature is reviewed.
