TREATMENT OF SPONTANEOUS INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGE USING UROKINASE
Authors
Abstract:
Twenty patients with intracranial hematoma (ICH or IVH) were treated with direct infusion of urokinase through a catheter. Reduction of hematoma volume was observed within a few days. Twelve patients showed good or excellent outcome. No infection or rebleeding was observed.

full textTreatment of Intracranial Vasospasm Following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Vasospasm has been a long known source of delayed morbidity and mortality in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients. Delayed ischemic neurologic deficits associated with vasospasm may account for as high as 50% of the deaths in patients who survive the initial period after aneurysm rupture and its treatment. The diagnosis and treatment of vasospasm has still been met with some controversy....
full textSpontaneous disappearance of an intracranial aneurysm after subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Spontaneous disappearance of an intracranial aneurysm after subarachnoid hemorrhage is an uncommon event and usually associated with severe cerebral vasospasm, giant aneurysms or the use of antifibrinolytics. We present a young woman who suffered a grade 5 subarachnoid hemorrhage with severe vasospasm caused by a small anterior communicating artery aneurysm. The patient underwent a slow recover...
full textTemporal evolution of diffusion after spontaneous supratentorial intracranial hemorrhage.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The evolution of apparent diffusion coefficient abnormalities during supratentorial intracranial hemorrhage in normal appearing brain tissue has not been described. Recent investigations using diffusion imaging have revealed increased apparent diffusion coefficient in perihematomal tissue. We report brain tissue abnormalities beyond the visibly abnormal region ipsilateral...
full textCLINICAL PROGRESS Management of Spontaneous Intracranial Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
U NTIL recently many clinicians considered subarachnoid hemorrhage a diagnostic entity. Since no specific form of treatinent was available regardless of the underlying pathology, a painstaking inquiry into etiology appeared to have more academic than practical value. This fact and the high mortality of patients treated only by bed rest and supportive therapy (table 1) often led to a relative la...
