conclusions small dose of clopidogrel (75 mg) may lead to rare, life-threatening dah, so physicians should be aware of the possibility of dah after neurointervention in patients who have respiratory distress, worsening alveolar infiltrates accompanied by hemoptysis. introduction diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (dah) is a very rare complication but acute and life-threatening event. clopidogrel has g...

abstract cerebral  aneurysms  are  the  major  cause  of  subarachnoid  hemorrhage.  common  ascribed  etiologies  are hemodynamic  factors  such  as  atherosclerosis,   hypertension,  infection,  trauma,  polycyctic   kidney  disease, connective tissue disorders like ehlers-danlos disease, marfan syndrome, and familial predisposition. however, its association with ankylosing spondylitis (as) i...

Background and Purpose: Cerebral microbleeds are an intracerebral microangiopathy with bleeding tendency found in intracerebral hemorrhage patients. However, studies about cerebral microbleed effects on the prognosis of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage patients are rare. We performed a prospective study to discuss not only the risk factors of cerebral microbleed incidence in hypertensive i...

Various risk factors have been implicated in causation of stroke but hypertension remains the single most important treatable risk factor in all age groups, and it is the one which seems to have a direct relation to incidence. Furthermore antihypertensive therapy has been observed to be effective in reducing the incidence of CVD (cerebrovascular disease). The interaction between hypertension, a...

Ruptured intracranial aneurysm usually manifests as subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) or SAH with hematoma. Aneurysms that only present with intracerebral hemorrhage or intraventricular hemorrhage are mostly confined to the distal artery. It is very rare that ruptured middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms manifest signs of caudate head hemorrhage extending into the cerebral ventricle. One su...

BACKGROUND Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKS) is a primary treatment modality for small, surgically-challenging meningiomas of the skull base in carefully selected patients. Despite the overall low incidence of complications from this procedure, rare instances of hemorrhagic events following GKS have been reported. In fact, only a single, probable case of acute hemorrhage after GKS for a meningioma...

Cerebral blood flow disturbance is a major contributor to brain injury in the preterm infant. The initiation of ventilation may be a critical time for cerebral hemodynamic disturbance leading to brain injury in preterm infants, particularly if they are exposed to inflammation in utero. We aimed to determine whether exposure to inflammation in utero alters cardiopulmonary hemodynamics, resulting...

1. Intracerebral hemorrhage can follow an asymptomatic interval after a trauma and may be due to local or systemic coagulation abnormalities, necrosis of blood vessels in areas of brain injury, transient cerebral dysautoregulation, reduction of intracranial pressure either medically or surgically, or cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. 2. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis may be easily overlooked ...
