Abstract
A 72-year-old female with intradiploic haemangioma associated with epidural haematoma is reported. MRI finding of the lesion is described. The cause of the epidural haematoma is speculated due to fragile vessels attached directly to dura mater through the pores of the inner table of the diploë.
