Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage Occurring during Progression of Chronic Subdural Hematoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common neurologic disease among the elderly. Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) associated with CSDH has been reported as a rare complication. In most cases they develop during or after burr hole drainage, and are related to rapid decompression. Coagulopathy, vascular malformation, aneurysm, and neoplasm have been reported as other possible cautions of SICH development associated with CSDH. However, remote SICH that occurs during progression of CSDH has not been previously reported. Here we describe a case of SICH that occurred during the progression of CSDH, and discuss possible mechanisms, with clinical and radiologic findings. Case Report

متن کاملSpontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage in hemophiliacs—A treatment dilemma
BACKGROUND Spontaneous Intracerebral hemorrhage is a rare and challenging condition to treat, especially in haemophiliacs. With their innate predilection to bleed following trivial trauma, surgical management of such cases have been individualised and no treatment protocols exist. Often they are managed with craniotomy and evacuation under cover of AHF. DISCUSSION Here we discuss the nuances,...
متن کاملSpontaneous Acute Subdural Hemorrhage with Rupture of Intracranial Aneurysm: A Series of Two Cases and Review of Literature
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) almost invariably develops following the rupture of a cerebral aneurysm, and is often complicated by intracerebral hematoma (ICH) and intraventricular hematoma. Subdural hematoma (SDH) can occur rarely. Reported incidence of SDH associated with aneurysm bleed varies from 0.5 to 7.9%.1,2 In most cases SDH is associated with SAH and/or ICH. Intracranial aneurysmal ru...
