Cerebral vasospasm is a well-known phenomenon that has been associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to aneurysmal bleeding. It can lead to serious outcomes if not recognized and treated promptly. It happens most frequently following cases of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Other causes include traumatic brain injury, reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome, post-tumor resection, and nonaneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. We describe a case of severe clinical vasospasm following acute on top of chronic spontaneous subdural hematoma in a patient with corpus callosum agenesis. Also, a small literature review of the possible risk factors of such occurrence is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
