Electrocardiographic changes in cerebrovascular hemorrhage. 1980

B J Yamour, and M R Sridharan, and J F Rice, and N C Flowers

The electrocardiographic abnormalities found in localized cerebrovascular hemorrhage which have been documented by computerized tomography (CT) scans are described. Frontal lobe hemorrhages are associated especially with the electrocardiographic abnormalities of QT prolongation and neurogenic T waves. Brain stem hemorrhage seems to be associated with noncardiogenic pulmonary edema, and sudden development of atrial fibrillation. It is proposed that the cause of ECG abnormalities in association with lesions in the vicinity of area 13 on the orbital surface of the frontal lobe, or around the circle of Willis, results from alterations in sympathetic and parasympathetic tone mediated by fibers from the orbito-frontal area to the heart via the stellate ganglia.

D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.
