A Rare Radiological Mimic of Intracranial Hemorrhage-Interpeduncular Lipoma

Intracranial lipomas are rare congenital malformations which are neither hamartomas nor true neoplasms. Rarely lipomas show blooming on susceptibilty weighted images and this can be confused with subacute blood especially if the patient present with headache and MRI brain is the only available image. Do fat saturated images or CT scan if T1 weighted MRI brain shows hyperintensity along with blooming on susceptibilty weighted images.
