Subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) in pregnancy
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) associated with aneurysm have rarely been reported in the literature. The present study reports the case of a 21-year-old pregnant female patient who presented with a subarachnoid hemorrhage and an intracranial hematoma located in the anterior end of the corpus callosum. Furthermore, an anterior cerebral aneurysm and an AVM were identified by digital subtraction angiography and magnetic resonance angiography. The aneurysm was clipped and the AVM was successfully removed by microsurgery. The diagnosis of AVM associated with an aneurysm was confirmed via intraoperative and postoperative pathological examinations. By performing a review of the current literature, issues and surgical considerations associated with AVM associated with aneurysm were analyzed. Publication Type: Journal: Article

To clarify the contribution of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) to subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) in the elderly, relationships between SAH and CAA were investigated in 997 necropsy cases aged 60 years or older. Primary SAH (bleeding from subarachnoid vessels) was found in 15 cases (1.5%). There was no case in which primary SAH was clearly attributed to CAA. Secondary SAH [secondary rupture of...
