INTRODUCTION: Intracranial hemorrhage usually occurs as a complication of hypertension, coagulopathy, or trauma. In rare instances, remote cerebellar hemorrhage (RCH) may complicate supratentorial or spinal surgery. METHODS: Retrospective case series study. RESULTS: We describe three cases of RCH complicating spinal and cranial surgical procedures associated with cerebrospinal fluid hypotension. CONCLUSIONS: Remote cerebellar intracranial hemorrhage may complicate neurosurgical procedures in which cerebrospinal fluid hypotension occurs.
