Early Quantification of Hematoma Hounsfield Units on Noncontrast CT in Acute Intraventricular Hemorrhage Predicts Ventricular Clearance after Intraventricular Thrombolysis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Thrombolytic efficacy of intraventricular rtPA for acute intraventricular hemorrhage may depend on hematoma composition. We assessed whether hematoma Hounsfield unit quantification informs intraventricular hemorrhage clearance after intraventricular rtPA. MATERIALS AND METHODS Serial NCCT was performed on 52 patients who received intraventricular rtPA as part of the Clo...
متن کاملQuantification of thrombus hounsfield units on noncontrast CT predicts stroke subtype and early recanalization after intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Little is known about the factors that determine recanalization after intravenous thrombolysis. We assessed the value of thrombus Hounsfield unit quantification as a predictive marker of stroke subtype and MCA recanalization after intravenous rtPA treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS NCCT scans and CTA were performed on patients with MCA acute stroke within 4.5 hours of sym...
متن کاملIntraventricular hemorrhage caused by intraventricular meningioma: CT appearance.
Intraventricular meningioma is a rare tumor with approximately 170 previously reported cases (1–7). Despite this it is the most common intraventricular tumor in adults, in whom it is most often located in the trigone of the lateral ventricle (1, 2). Computed tomography (CT) features are similar to meningiomas elsewhere, and in most cases they appear as well-defined high-attenuation masses that ...
متن کاملLeukocytosis in Preterm Infants with Intraventricular Hemorrhage
Background:Intraventricular hemorrhage is the most common intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between intraventricular hemorrhage and blood leukocyte count. Materials and Methods:This was a cross-sectional simple sampling study conducted from the beginning of 2006 to 2010 in Ali-Asghar Children’s Hospital. Inclusion c...
متن کاملIntraventricular Hemorrhage and Early Hematoma Expansion in Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Intraventricular hemorrhage is associated with poor functional outcomes in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to investigate the association between intraventricular hemorrhage and early hematoma expansion in patients with ICH. Patients with ICH who underwent a baseline CT scan within six hours after onset of symptoms were included. The follow-up CT scan was performed within...
