[The relation of electroencephalographic foci to vasospasms in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage (author's transl)]. 1977

E Rumpl, and G Bauer, and G Stampfel

During a period of five years 74 patients with acute subarachnoid haemorrhage were controlled by angiography and EEG. 19 patients demonstrated angiographically proved intracranial aneurysms, seven intracerebral haematomas, three arteriovenous abnormalities. 25 patients had vasospasms. 34 patients showed foci in the EEG. Focal neurological abnormalities were in 43 patients. A correlation was established between EEG focus and vasospasm, focus and intracerebral haematoma. Further a relationship between focus and focal neurological abnormalities was detected. There was no correlation between EEG focus and aneurysm. It was claimed, that some foci in the EEG could be the result of persistent vasospasms.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002532 Intracranial Aneurysm Abnormal outpouching in the wall of intracranial blood vessels. Most common are the saccular (berry) aneurysms located at branch points in CIRCLE OF WILLIS at the base of the brain. Vessel rupture results in SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE or INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES. Giant aneurysms (>2.5 cm in diameter) may compress adjacent structures, including the OCULOMOTOR NERVE.
