cerebral hemorrhage/vomiting

OBJECTIVE Non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage is a rare occurrence in children, with the most frequent etiology being vascular malformation. Our aim was to review the etiology and management of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage in children. METHODS We have reviewed the patients admitted to our

A 49-year-old male was hospitalized with a 1-month history of persistent headache and vomiting. Computed tomography (CT) revealed left middle fossa arachnoid cysts and a chronic subdural hygroma. The cysts were excised after evacuation of the subdural hygroma. Postoperatively, the patient did not

Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), including pachymeningitis and CNS vasculitis, is uncommon. Although intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has been reported in GPA, simultaneous multiple ICH (SMICH) is rare. We describe the case of a 50-year-old woman with

Reports of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in patients with hemophilia B are relatively rare. We describe the first clinical results of the use of a monoclonal antibody purified factor IX (FIX) concentrate (Mononine) after an ICH and the long-term outcome of prophylaxis with this product to prevent

BACKGROUND Although most symptomatic dengue infections follow an uncomplicated course, complications and unusual manifestations are increasingly being reported due to rising disease burden. Expanded dengue syndrome is a new entity added into World Health Organization (WHO) classification system to

An 11-week-old male infant presented with intracerebral hemorrhage associated with coagulopathy manifesting as left hemiparesis, lethargy, and vomiting. Computed tomography demonstrated extensive right frontoparietal intracerebral hemorrhage extending into the ventricular system. Liver function

It has been recognized that small intracerebral hemorrhage not uncommonly produced lacunar syndromes. In this study, we examined cases of intracerebral hemorrhage presenting as lacunar syndromes. Of 174 cases with recent intracerebral hemorrhage, 19 presented with a lacunar syndrome: 4 presented

We examined case of intracerebral hemorrhage presenting as lacunar syndrome. Of 115 cases, 10 presented with a lacunar syndrome: 3 presented with pure motor hemiparesis, 1, pure sensory stroke, 1, ataxic hemiparesis, 5, sensorimotor stroke, and, none, dysarthria--clumsy hand syndrome. The sites of

OBJECTIVE To present a case of Moyamoya disease with intracranial hemorrhage complicating pregnancy. METHODS A 36-yr-old parturient at 34 wk gestation presented with left hemiparesis, headache, nausea and vomiting. Subsequent deterioration in level of consciousness and the development of a dilated

The influence of site of hemorrhage on presentation, clinical profile, hospital course, and outcome was examined in 225 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage in the NINDS Stroke Data Bank. Mode of presentation differed by hemorrhage site (coma at onset was most typical of pontine hemorrhage and

Stroke was the leading cause of death in Taiwan for 19 years (1963-1981). About 60% of the hospitalized patients dying of stroke suffered from cerebral hemorrhage (CH). This fact denotes an important role of CH in causing fatal stroke. The widely use of computed tomography (CT) in Taiwan in the past

BACKGROUND Primary intracerebral hemorrhage accounts for the relative minority of all strokes and yet is more fatal and disabling. Various prognostic models for mortality and functional outcome following primary intracerebral hemorrhage have been proposed, however there is little data which focuses
