subarachnoid hemorrhage/nausea

The study included 562 patients with headache who visited our clinic from January 1988 to December 1993. In these patients, the possibility of subarachnoid hemorrhage was denied from CT findings and color of cerebrospinal fluid by lumbar puncture. Cerebral aneurysm was found in 52 out of 562

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a life-threatening event that can cause permanent disability. This life-threatening event can be further complicated by subsequent cardiac and pulmonary disability. The presence of a neurogenic cardiomyopathy and pulmonary edema increases the morbidity and

Cerebral venous thrombosis presenting with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is very rare. We report a case of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis as an initial manifestation of SAH. A 14-year-old boy was admitted with progressive headache, nausea, vomiting, diplopia, and gait disturbance. Cerebral

BACKGROUND The symptoms of sudden severe headache and/or diminished consciousness characterize the onset of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, several studies have suggested that some patients show an atypical presentation at the onset: symptoms lacking sudden headache and diminished

A 31-year-old woman presented with bilateral ophthalmic segment "kissing" aneurysms causing subarachnoid hemorrhage manifesting as sudden severe headache and nausea 3 days before admission. Cerebral angiography demonstrated bilateral internal carotid-superior hypophyseal artery aneurysms, both

OBJECTIVE Lenticulostriate artery aneurysms are rare. When present, distal locations in and around the basal ganglia are more common and often present with intraparenchymal hemorrhage when ruptured. We present a very rare case of a ruptured proximal lenticulostriate fusiform aneurysm presenting with

Idiopathic dural arteriovenous malformation which occurs in the posterior fossa uses predominantly transverse and sigmoid sinuses. Cavernous sinus comes next and others are rather rare. However, we have recently experienced such a rare case which was operated on and cured completely. The

Computed tomography (CT) findings of chronic subdural hematomas are usually diagnostic, unless hematomas are isodense and bilateral. The authors report two cases of bilateral chronic subdural hematomas, in which CT scans on admission were both misdiagnosed as delayed subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).

BACKGROUND Both aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and benign perimesencephalic hemorrhage are well-described causes of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage that arise as a result of different pathologic processes. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there have been no reports of both vascular

A 60-year-old female presented with sudden onset of severe headache and back pain, followed by nausea. The initial head computed tomography (CT) scan revealed posterior fossa subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Spinal T(2)-weighted magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated SAH, and a homogeneous and

Intracranial hemorrhage is a rare complication of spinal surgery. Case 1 was a 58-year-old man who underwent cervical laminoplasty. No apparent iatrogenic dural rupture or cerebrospinal fluid leakage was observed. An hour after the surgery, the patient had convulsions and became restless thereafter.

Background: Perimesencephalic non-aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (PNSH) is characterized by a typical pattern of localized pretruncal hemorrhage on head computed tomography (CT). PNSH is usually associated with a benign clinical

A total of 123 patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage were admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery, Haukeland Hospital, during the years 1990-93. In 16 patients, there was a delay from the first haemorrhage until diagnosis and treatment. In eight patients, the delay was caused by incorrect

Systemic complications secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage from an aneurysm are common (40%) and the mortality attributable to them (23%) is comparable to mortality from the primary lesion, rebleeding, or vasospasm. Although nonneurologic medical complications are avoidable, they worsen the

We report a case of a dissecting vertebral aneurysm with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) after ischemic onset on the same day. A 48-year-old man had abrupt vertigo and nausea. CT & MRI on admission showed no abnormality, but he complained of left hemiparesis after admission. Twelve hours after the
