Abstract

Muslin foreign body granulomas are a known complication of muslin aneurysm wrapping and have been associated with vision loss from optochiasmatic arachnoiditis. Muslin granulomas have also been confused with abscesses due to surrounding inflammatory changes. In this clinical image, we present a unique case of a muslin granuloma mimicking an intraparenchymal hematoma.
