The number of patients with spontaneous hemorrhage related to intracranial vascular disease has dramatically decreased during the Covid-19 related containment of the population. (A) The number of patients admitted for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) has decreased from 6.9 patients per month per center before the containment to 4.3 during the containment (*P = 0.03). (B) The number of patients admitted for intracranial hemorrhage related to arteriovenous malformation (AVM) or to dural arteriovenous fistula (AVF) has decreased from 1.6 patients per month per center before the containment to 0.8 during the containment (NS: Non Significant).
