RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Cerebral arterial vasospasm is a rare complication after supratentorial meningioma resection. The pathophysiology of this condition may be similar to vasospasm after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, and treatment options may be similar. OBSERVATIONS: The authors present two cases of cerebral vasospasm after supratentorial meningioma resection and perform a systematic literature review of similar cases. LESSONS: Cerebral arterial vasospasm after supratentorial meningioma resection may be associated with significant morbidity due to cerebral ischemia if not addressed in a timely manner. Treatment paradigms may be adopted from the management of arterial vasospasm associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
