The authors present the case of a 60-year-old woman who was admitted to their institution after suffering a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Neuroimaging data demonstrated an olfactory groove meningioma surrounded by a slight edema, but there was no evidence of SAH, although results of the lumbar puncture demonstrated xanthochromic cerebrospinal fluid. Angiography confirmed the diagnosis of meningioma, but results of magnetic resonance imaging led the authors to suspect a cavernoma within the meningioma. This diagnosis was established by pathological examination of the resected lesion. The patient did well and was discharged soon after surgery. This very rare association and the propensity of each of these lesions to be revealed by hemorrhage are discussed.
