Acute traumatic brain injury is a worldwide public health crisis. Post-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a finding that is present at a frequency of 40% according to data from American TCDB (1,2). Among the mechanisms that have been implicated as causes of post-traumatic SAH is the cortical bleeding through the subarachnoid space. It is estimated that the incidence of post-traumatic SA...

Background: Cerebral vasospasm (CV) can contribute significant morbidity for subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients. A key unknown is how CV induction triggered following SAH.

Besides its severe neurological injuries, spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) commonly causes cardiac complications. These complications could include three different aspects of cardiac diseases, that is, electrocardiographic abnormalities, myocardial injuries, and left ventricular dysfunction. These complications not only may lead to misdiagnosis of SAH as myocardial infarction, but also...

Delayed Cerebral Ischemia (DCI) is a frequent and serious complication after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH), the leading cause of disability

BACKGROUND Aneurysmal rupture accounts for the majority of nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Increasingly recognized is the occurrence of nontraumatic convexity SAH unaccounted for by aneurysmal rupture. CASE REPORT These presentations require consideration of rare but clinically significant sources of SAH. We report a patient presenting with prolonged mild headaches and acute onset...

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is bleeding into the subarachnoid space. It may result from a rupture of an intracranial aneurysm, bleeding from an arteriovenous malformation, hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage with extension into the subarachnoid space, hemorrhage from an intracranial tumor, trauma, and hematologic disorders. If trauma is eliminated as a cause of SAH, more than 80% of SAHs ar...

despite the many studies about timing for surgery in subarachnoid hemorrhage (sah), the optimum time is still unclear. the aim of this study was to determine the results of early and late surgery for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. in this cross-sectional study we evaluated the results of 70 consecutive surgery for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in in firuzgar hospital from 2005 to 2008...

o bjectives: to determine the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance angiography (mra) compared to intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (dsa) in detection of intracranial aneurysms in those suffering from acute subarachnoid hemorrhage (sah). m e thods: this observational diagnostic study was performed at a tertiary teaching hospital and reference center in shiraz, iran. we included...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although the effect of weather and air pollution on the occurrence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been investigated, results have remained inconsistent. The present study aimed to determine the seasonality of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage occurrence and mortality. METHODS We used the National Inpatient Sample database to evaluate the effect of meteorological ...

Gnathostoma spinigerum can cause subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The detection of specific antibodies in serum against G. spinigerum antigen is helpful for diagnosis of neurognathostomiasis. There is limited data on the frequency of G. spinigerum infection in non-traumatic SAH. A series of patients diagnosed as non-traumatic SAH at the Srinagarind Hospital, Khon Kaen University, Thailand between...
