Gamma knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is considered an established treatment for vestibular schwannoma (VS) in selected patients. Spontaneous intratumoral hemorrhage in VS after GKRS is very rare. In this report, we present a 63-year-old gentleman who had right-side severe sensorineural hearing loss on MRI showing a right cerebellopontine angle tumor (volume 4.96 cm3) with an internal acoustic meatus extension. He underwent GKRS with the prescription dose of 12 Gy to the 50% isodose line, covering 4.66 cm3 (i.e., 94%) of the tumor. Ten days later, he experienced a symptomatic intra-lesional hemorrhage with a mass effect over the brainstem. When symptoms did not resolve after an initial conservative approach, he underwent surgical decompression of the lesion. Postoperatively, the patient had facial palsy but was free of disabling vertigo and ataxia. At the 6-month follow-up, he was doing well without any other complaints. Although rare, an intralesional bleed can occur after GKRS in VS and should be suspected when new severe symptoms develop immediately after therapy.
