Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the clinical and pathological features of patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) related cerebral hemorrhage (C A AH). Methods : The clinical data of 5 patients with C A AH, including clinical manifestations, neuroimaging and topographical anatomy features were studied. Results: It was found that the onset and clinical manifestations of CAAH resembled hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage. CAAH could coexist with hypertension and hypertension might aggravate the pathological changes of CAA. Typical CAAH located in cortical and subcortical areas, but cerebral hemorrhage located in the basal ganglia and thalamus could not ruled out CAAH without the pathological confirmation of CAA. The neuroimages of some specific types of cerebral hemorrhage, such as insular cistern hematoma and subarachnoid hemorrhage, could manifest as hypertonial putaminal hemorrhage, but their outcomes were distinctly different. Conclusion: The causes of cerebral hemorrhage include hypertension and cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and CAA may have an important clinical value.
