Effects of induced arterial hypertension for vasospasm on unruptured and unsecured cerebral aneurysms (growth and rupture). A retrospective case-control study. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2024; 33:107775. [PMID: 38768668 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2024.107775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Unruptured cerebral aneurysms (UCAs) often coexist with the ruptured one but are typically left unsecured during the weeks following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). We compared the rate of UCAs rupture or volume growth (≥5 mm3) between patients exposed to induced arterial hypertension (iHTN) for vasospasm and those not exposed (control group). MATERIALS AND METHODS From 2013 to 2021, we retrospectively included consecutive adult patients with aSAH who had ≥1 UCA. Custom software for digital subtraction angiography (DSA) image analysis characterized UCAs volume, going beyond merely considering UCAs long axis. RESULTS We analyzed 118 patients (180 UCAs): 45 in the iHTN group (64 UCAs) and 73 in the control group (116 UCAs). Systolic blood pressure in the iHTN group was significantly higher than in the control group for several days after aSAH. During the 107 day-monitoring period [interquartile range(IQR):92;128], no UCA rupture occurred in either group. UCA volume analysis was performed in 44 patients (60 UCAs): none of the UCAs in the iHTN group and 3 out of 42 (7%) in the control group had a >5 mm3 volume growth (p=0.55). Other morphologic parameters did not exhibit any variations that might indicate an increased risk of rupture in the iHTN group compared to the control group. CONCLUSION iHTN did not increase the risk of rupture or volume growth of UCAs within several weeks following aSAH. These reassuring results encourage not to refrain, because of the existence of UCAs, from iHTN as an option to prevent cerebral infarction during cerebral vasospasm.

Neurocrit Care 2023; 39:81-90.

Abstract
One of the most serious complications after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is delayed cerebral ischemia, the cause of which is multifactorial. Delayed cerebral ischemia considerably worsens neurological outcome and increases the risk of death. The targets of hemodynamic management of SAH have widely changed over the past 30 years. Hypovolemia and hypotension were favored prior to the era of early aneurysmal surgery but were subsequently replaced by the use of hypervolemia and hypertension. More recently, the concept of goal-directed therapy targeting euvolemia, with or without hypertension, is gaining preference. Despite the evolving concepts and the vast literature, fundamental questions related to hemodynamic optimization and its effects on cerebral perfusion and patient outcomes remain unanswered. In this review, we explain the rationale underlying the approaches to hemodynamic management and provide guidance on contemporary strategies related to fluid administration and blood pressure and cardiac output manipulation in the management of SAH.

Abstract
Overlap between the pathogenesis of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome and that of cerebrovascular disease can confound their clinical and radiological presentations, posing a diagnostic challenge. This article presents a literature review and discussion of the clinical manifestations, pathological mechanisms, and imaging manifestations of subarachnoid hemorrhage and vasculitis leading to posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, coexistence of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome with reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome, and hemorrhage and infarction secondary to posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. The findings show that posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome shares some overlapping pathophysiological mechanisms with cerebrovascular disease. Importantly, neuroimaging plays an important role in identifying this entity in a timely manner and differentiating it from other diseases.
