The spectrum of clinical and neuroradiological evaluation shows that intracranial involvement from plasmacytoma and multiple myeloma must be taken into account in the differential diagnosis of cranial osseous and meningeal disease.

Temporal lobe giant or dPVSs may regress, eventually together with resection or regression of intracranial tumors, also distant from the PVSs. Cerebral edema does not seem the only factor influencing dilatation of PVSs.

PWI seems to be useful in the differential diagnosis of ring-enhancing cerebral lesions. High rCBV values in the peripheral areas appear to indicate the possibility of a necrotic tumour, whereas low values tend to indicate an abscess.

In the patient reported herein, closed TBI most likely induced diffuse excitotoxic injury of the brain which resulted in mainly reversible cytotoxic or intramyelinic oedema.
