Abstract The phrase "space-occupying lesion" or "intra-cranial space-occupying lesion" refers to any primary or secondary neoplasm, whether benign or malignant, as well as any parasite or inflammatory mass located inside the cranial cavity. Because of the restricted expandability within the cerebral cavity, severe ischemic stroke with progressive edema formation is often accompanied with a poor prognosis and life-threatening circumstances. A brain lesion that occupies space is typically caused by cancer, although it can also result from other pathologies like an abscess or a hemorrhage. Advances in brain imaging have made it possible to detect intracranial lesions with reasonable accuracy, allowing us to focus on the cause of these space-occupying lesions. Here we present a case of a 65-year-old man presenting with sluring of speech and deviation of angle of mouth to the right side. Where the patient already undergone s/p percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. The physician advised magnetic resonance imaging [Brain-Plain & Contrast], which shows a well-defined heterogenous lesion in the left frontal lobe measuring 1.9x1.7 cm with moderate vasogenic edema-space-occupying lesion with the possibility of metastasis, including glioma.
