We retrospectively studied the T2 star (T2*)-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a 40-year-old patient diagnosed with symptomatic early-onset cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), occurring 34 years following childhood neurosurgery using a cadaveric dural patch. Our findings revealed that CAA associated with cadaveric dural transplantation could progress rapidly, sometimes with bilateral bleeding. This microbleed evolution is suggestive of water-soluble amyloid-β transmission via cerebrospinal fluid alongside perivascular drainage pathways with deposition in the cerebral artery walls due to clearance disturbances. Multiple intracerebral hemorrhages associated with CAA with a childhood cadaveric dural graft should be considered a life-threatening medical complication.
