Abstract
Stereotactic brain tumor biopsy has a high rate of diagnostic yield in lesions in which resection is not indicated because of the eloquence of the brain area involved or due to uncertainty of the differential diagnosis. It remains a flexible diagnostic method with generally low morbidity. We report a case of intracranial bleed after Stereotactic Biopsy of intracranial lesion.
