A series of patients with subpial hemorrhage: Clinical manifestation, neuroradiological presentation and therapeutic implications

Abstract: Subpial hemorrhage is a rare finding in patients with a variable spectrum of neurological symptoms and signs. Here we present a series of 10 patients with subpial hemorrhage, 53 to 80 years old, diagnosed and treated within the last 4 years at a single center. Patients were identified based on imaging criteria with either magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) showing blood along the cortical surface. Presenting symptoms were diverse, with seizures being the most frequent followed by head… Show more

“…Subpial hematomas are a rare type of intracerebral hemorrhage with an unclear mechanism and poor prognosis. [1][2][3][4] Previously Sylvian hematoma in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been attributed to aneurysm rupture. 4 Recent case reports using 4D CT angiography (4D CTA) 5 6 suggest an additional mechanism for the development of Sylvian hematomas in patients with acute post-aneurysmal SAH that is separate from aneurysmal rebleeding.…”

We present a case of unilateral Sylvian hematoma secondary to multifocal bleeding points detected on conventional angiography during coiling of an acutely ruptured posterior communicating (PComm) artery aneurysm.…”

“…Reference to subpial hemorrhage has been made in the setting of perinatal hemorrhage, with pathology specimens demonstrating small clefts between the superficial glial processes and the pia mater and an absence of intraparenchymal hemorrhage and SAH at pathologic examination (41). Therefore, the results of CSF sampling did not show xanthochromia in 10 adult patients with subpial hemorrhage, as opposed to the results of CSF sampling in patients with SAH (42).…”

“…Few cases of subpial haemorrhage have been described in the literature due to their relative rarity, which is estimated at approximately 4% according to pathological reports. 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 Consequently, there is a relative paucity of knowledge regarding its aetiology, associated clinical manifestations and outcomes. The risk factors and pathophysiology of this entity are unique compared with other forms of extra-axial haemorrhage.…”
