🔷Imaging hints:. ▶️Cortical sulci do not reach the inner table of the skull (yellow arrows) and are partially effaced.▶️Mass effect.▶️Apparent thickened cortex.▶️If contrast was given, displaced cortical veins between the collection and the cortex may be helpful

⭐️ Answer: Isodense right subdural hematoma . 🔷Isodensity typically occurs in the subacute setting between 3-21 days though can rarely be seen in the acute setting if the patient is anemic or if the hematoma is diluted with CSF.

💡 Hyperdense sinus >65-70 HU (be aware of pitfalls such as patients hematocrit, recent contrast administration, CT technique). 💡 Newborns may have physiologic polycythemia, relative hypodense parenchyma, and perinatal hemorrhage which can be misinterpreted as sinus thrombosis

⭐️ Answer: Cortical vein thrombosis (CVT). ▶️CVT causes retrograde venous pressure leading to focal vasogenic edema. ▶️Increased back pressure is characterized by dilated veins and petechial hemorrhage which can progress to large hematomas and ischemic neurological damage.

💡 Preoperative embolization often necessary to reduce bleeding during surgery. 💡 Make sure to describe full extent of tumor to avoid incomplete surgical resection as well as imply a need for radiation in unresectable cases.

▶️Main Ddx is Rhabdomyosarcoma:. ▶️Rhabdomyosarcoma can arise anywhere though is less likely to invade the pterygopalantine fossa. Rhabdo usually has more bone destruction than remodeling and is usually less avidly enhancing in comparison.

🔷Imaging:. ▶️Markedly enhancing soft tissue mass widening the pterygopalantine fossa with bony remodeling. ▶️Marked enhancement may give a salt and pepper appearance due to internal flow voids. 💡 LOCATION, marked ENHANCEMENT, age and GENDER are 🔑 to the diagnosis

⭐️ Answer: Juvenile Nasopharyngeal Angiofibromas are rare benign (though locally aggressive) tumors that arise from the SPHENOPALATINE FORAMEN. 💡 Classically, they present in adolescence w/ epistaxis almost exclusively in MALES (though I have seen new diagnoses in older patients.
