CADASIL: two new cases with intracerebral hemorrhage
نویسندگان
چکیده
Whether cerebral autosomal-dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a risk factor for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and influences outcomes remains unclear. In this study, we report two cases of CADASIL presenting with cerebral hemorrhages. These cases suggest that a CADASIL vasculopathy by itself mainly results in ICH, as indicated by slight vascular risk factors and prominent neuroimaging abnormalities, suggesting that CADASIL should be considered a risk factor for ICH. Interestingly, decreased perihematomal edema was noted in ICH patients with CADASIL in this study.
