Early Intraocular Complications of Subarachnoid Haemorrhage after Aneurysm Rupture

摘要

The aim of this study was to identify factors predisposing for early intraocular complications of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). The authors analysed 96 selected cases of aneurysmal SAH. Forty patients (42%) demonstrated abnormal fundus findings, including disc swelling (13.5%), retinal haemorrhages (23%), and vitreous haemorrhage (5%). The incidence of intraocular pathologies was significantly higher in patients who lost consciousness at the onset of SAH, were admitted with high scores of the Hunt-Hess and Fisher scales and low score of the Glasgow Coma Scale, as well as in those with arterial hypertension, more sizable aneurysm, and older.
