Subarachnoid hemorrhage in children

Subarachnoid hemorrhage in children

K Sano et al. Childs Brain. 1978.

Abstract

45 cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage in children were surveyed. 73 percent of the causes were arteriovenous malformations and spontaneous intracerebral hematomata. Arteriovenous malformations in children may grow in size which may be due to the fact that besides the nidus demonstrated by angiography there are surrounding abnormal vascular groups, the reserved nidus. If one fails to extirpate this reserve nidus at the time of surgical excision of the arteriovenous malformation, it may become nidus several years later and may bleed again. The follow-up results of surgery in subarachnoid hemorrhage cases were fairly good.
