Abstract:
An intracerebral aneurysm usually bleeds into the subarachnoid space in addition it may also rupture into the subdural space or into the brain, and it is reported that approximately 2-8 percent of all ruptured aneurysm have an associated subdural hematoma. We had experienced 4 cases of subdural hematoma following ruptured intracerebral saccular aneurysm from 1983 to 1985. They were distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm and middle cerebral artery aneurysm, and 2 cases of anterior communicating artery aneurysm. There were no relationship between the amount of subdural hematoma and clinical course. With a view to the clinical course, 3 cases were acute, and one was chronic.
