Postoperative remote cerebellar haemorrhage occurring distant to the operated site as its name suggests is a rare though recognized entity in neurosurgical practice. It can be potentially devastating. Over 100 cases have been described in various literatures over the years. It is postulated to be due to CSF over drainage, has been the most popular theory behind its occurrence.
