Abstract
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is an age-related cerebral microangiopathy characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-beta peptide in the wall of leptomeningeal arteries and cortical vessels. Diagnosis of sporadic amyloid angiopathy is most often made in elderly patient with lobar hematoma. We report a case of a 68-year-old female who had minimal head injury. Cerebral CT showed a right cerebellar hematoma. Follow-up MRI after 4 months showed signs of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Through this observation, we describe the MRI semiology that helps make the diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy.
